Mae Win
Spend a day immersed in the traditions of the Karen people in Mae Win, a peaceful valley area famed for its farmland and forested hills. The Karen are one of the largest ethnic minority groups in South-East Asia, with significant populations in Northern Thailand. They have a deep connection with the land and are often cited as stewards of the forest. Their traditional ecological knowledge includes careful land management, herbal medicine and spiritual practices that protect natural resources. This enriching cultural experience offers an insight into a way of life shaped by sustainable farming and a deep respect for nature.

Mae Wang Waterfall
During a visit to a local Karen village, we learn about rice cultivation, from seasonal cycles to age-old agricultural techniques. This lively excursion involves hands-on activities such as ploughing, planting and rice transplanting, plus the unique opportunity to feed water buffalo, an essential contributor to rural life as they pulled ploughs before the introduction of mechanized vehicles. A rustic lunch is served in the rice fields, surrounded by tranquil countryside. The day concludes with time to unwind at a nearby waterfall before returning to our hotel
