Privat and individual trekkingtour: 
Long Koot Trek – Full Day – 6-7 hrs. walking time.
Lao Loum, Lao Theung, and Lao Sung village mountain trek.
You will start from your Bungalow down to the Nam Khan River. You traverse the Nam Khan via water taxi to begin the march up to a mid-mountain Theung village (Khmu).
Careful not to disrupt the serenity of this isolated village, we can observe the locals as they carry out their daily tasks, taking note that foreigners still remain a novelty here. You get the chance to ask questions and wander around in the small village. Have a look to the simple school or hang out a bit with the chief of the village. Your guide will be happy to translate your questions.
Waving our good-byes, we enter a different world of a grander scale dominated by some jungle, soaring limestone rock faces, and flourishing ferns. Edging forward along a steep, narrow, rocky track, we ascend to our final destination, sharing the trail with passing villagers on their day’s pilgrimage to market. After a short but steep walk we finally arrive at the Lao Sung village (Hmong), an isolated and quaint village high in the mountains overrun by roaming livestock. Welcomed by the shy yet curious kids, we enjoy lunch in a local, humble home to share in a unique encounter. Listen to the stories, play with the curious children or ask your questions about their way of life up here. Afternoon we start our descending walk back into other small villages, which are along the way. You will follow a little stream, see villagers on their way bak from markets or from the fields…until you reach the Nam Khan river. With a small boat we will be brought back to our starting point. Loaded with impressions we head back to the relaxing atmosphere of the Lao Spirit Resort.

Day 3: 
At 8 AM we start from your bungalow for a short walk to the elephantcamp. There you are riding the elephant on his neck to the river bank. The mahout teach you how you have to brush and bath the elephant. At about 9 AM you are back in the resort and enjoy a refreshing breakfast.
