Get on Your Bike and Head for the Hills!

65 cyclists from Germany recently visited the Angkhang Nature Resort in Doi Angkhang. The group were participating in a cycling tour of the north of Thailand, organised by Diethelm.

A comfortable 3 hour drive from Chiang Mai, through some of Thailand's most spectacular scenery, Angkhang is the perfect place to unwind. The mountain location, cool climate and scenic beauty of the surrounding countryside make it an ideal escape.

A popular way to explore the environment around Angkhang Nature Resort is by mountain bike. The resort keeps a few on the premises, which can be booked by guests. The route from the resort to Nor-Lae is relatively easy while from Baan Luang to Pa-Daeng is a little more challenging.

Note to Editors : Developed as part of the Royal Angkhang Research Station, the Angkhang Nature Resort offers 72 superior rooms and 2 suites. Each room is furnished in teakwood, decorated with local Thai fabrics and has a spacious private balcony from which to enjoy the view of the surrounding countryside. The Camellia Restaurant serves delicious Thai and western specialities using the fresh vegetables, fruit and herbs grown locally by the Royal Angkhang Agricultural Station Project.
