Thailand Phan Loop





Phan loop

We decided to revisit and complete this loop through the Doi Luang NP making a nice 250km looping ride, most of the pictures are from the section marked on the map. A great trail ride with a few landslides making it impassible at the moment for 4WD.


Fallen tree's from a heavy storm the previous day making it hard going in places.  






The long fire road still in good shape.



The deep ruts give some idea of the rain flow in this area.



Riding the stream chance to clean the bikes.



Unusual crematorium near the 118.



Very slippery down hill testing Des.



Time for a beer !!




Making the turn back towards Chiang Rai 



Another landslide high in the mountains.



Nice camping area near a cave complex.








Beautiful panoramic views



The trail was actually the stream bed.



Beautiful Wat up high in the mountains








Farmers telling us which way to go, thought they were joking, through the river they said






More wet feet.



Nice forest section towards Phan
