Scouting Trip For New Route!
December is usually dry and sunny in North Thailand. We are planning a private dual 11 days tour with a group of riders end January.
Last weekend we took two of our R1200GS, put off-road tires on and took off. We explored single and dual-track roads in Doi Tung / Chiang Rai area.
Continued to Chiang Dao and did some beautiful roads through the wildlife sanctuary, dirt roads to Huai Nam Dang National Park.
From here along the 1’864 curve road to Mae Hong Son. From here we did the Elephant track back to Wat Chan and Chiang Mai. This 80km off-road section brought us through beautiful mountains and scenery.
Crossing over mountains and rivers, up to 1650 meters above sea level. A true adventure riders paradise.
