Day 1:
Luang Prabang - Kha Mu Village (L,D)
Leave Luang
Prabang in the morning, preferably early
around 8.00 A.M. and head out north along
the Mekong river road. You drive about 60km
out of town to find yourself in remote Lao
for your three day trekking adventure… After
arriving at the beautiful Nam Ou river, you
start your trekking activity to the first
stop, a Khamu village (Pha Phong) After 2
hrs. more on tiny villagers trails you
arrive in Houay Wai, a small Hmong community
in the mountains whose families will be your
hosts for the night. Total walking about 4
hrs. lunch break with your guideThe evening
we spend together with the family and the
children of the village who will come to see
the foreign long-nose “falangs”. Take your
time to relax and to ask questions or help
your guide as he prepares a nice
trekking-dinner. You have time to take a
bath in the small fresh water well.
Overnight in villagers home
Day 2: Khamu Area Trekking : (B,L,D)
The next day
you hike for a longer stretch after an early
breakfast to have another night and enough
time in the Hmong village. Again it will be
warm and curious welcome to you…and you will
be tired. You walk over small hills and up
and down to the higher areas where the Hmong
normally live. The village is laid back but
very poor, so you may bring some things for
the school, such as books and pens. Ask the
locals and your guide to learn more about
the believes and animist religion or just
listen to the traditional Hmong chanting…
Total walking about 5-6 hrs.
Day 3: Khamu Village - Songthaews -
Luang Prabang (B,L,D)
On the last day
of this trekking adventure your trails guide
you down back to road connected areas. Other
village visits are included and the
re-transportation to Luang Prabang will take
about 2 hrs. in one of the local Songthaews.
Total walking time about 3-4 hrs. Until just
a few people have enjoyed and recommended
this trek again and again, now it is open to
public. Follow our Hmong guides and take
home a bit more than just nice memories and
pictures.
