Overview

In the peaceful valley of Mae Win, north of Chiang Mai, the Karen people have cultivated the land for generations with a deep respect for nature and sustainable living. This full-day immersion brings their way of life to life through hands-on farming activities in one of Northern Thailand's most authentic rural settings.
Learn about seasonal rice cultivation cycles and age-old agricultural techniques, then roll up your sleeves for hands-on activities: ploughing, planting, and rice transplanting in working fields. Feed water buffalo, a cornerstone of Karen rural life before mechanisation, and discover the community's traditional ecological knowledge, herbal practices, and deep connection to the land.
A rustic lunch is served in the rice fields, surrounded by open countryside, before the day concludes with time to unwind at a scenic waterfall nearby.
Hotel pickup is available from centrally located Chiang Mai hotels. This culturally rich full-day experience is suitable for all ages.

Activity itinerary

Mae Win

  • 4h
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

  • 4h
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
