The famous Myanmar border jungle trail that is impassable in the the rainy season.


This is next weeks adventure with a few friends, quite a special route.

Thai Flying club will take you over the falls if you book.

Just calculated that it's a 915km drive from Chiang Mai to Sangklhaburi (the start of the jungle run)- Logistics with pick-up and bikes will be "interesting".
