This trip takes you to a small village just outside Phou Khao Khouay - Ban Hatkhai, where you can experience authenticate village life. Mountains, dense forests and bright-green rice fields surround the village. Its beautiful location at the banks of the Nam Mang River offers an ideal setting for a picturesque picnic under a fig tree.From your hotel, we will be transferred from Vientiane to Ban Hatkhai, where a long-tail boat takes us up-stream on the Nam Mang River, before continuing along the smaller Houay Xai stream, one of its many tributaries. A 2 hours trek passes under an evergreen canopy, while slowly gaining height.
A picnic lunch is served on the way. The magnificent pair of waterfalls, Tad Xay and Pha Xay and only about 800 m apart, are particularly beautiful and thundering during and after the rainy season. Tad Xay has a pool which is great for bathing. We'll be there in the early afternoon. From here, a pick-up takes the group to Ban Hatkhai, from where we return to Vientiane.
Approximately: 2.5 hours transfer/ 1 hour boating / 2 hours trekking
Note: In the dry season, when we are not able to take the long-tail boat on Houay Xai stream due to low water, we continue the boat ride further up-steam on the Nam Mang to start our trek at another point. (3 hours trekking)
