#HikingTrip Our first trip of 3 days and 2 nights in the forest started with chaos because we changed our plans less than 4 hours before the trip. But in the end, we ended up at Doi Luang Phayao - Doi Nok. Even though we were not fully prepared, luckily we had some exercise experience, so we could handle the brutal route. Even though we were so tired that we almost gave up many times. This trip was harder than we thought because the porters left us, so we had to carry our own luggage. The path was diverse, both flat, steep, rocky, waterfalls, and many more. At many points, we had to use our hands to climb. Sometimes we even crawled until our hands were rough and cracked. We also got stung by bees. But what helped us keep going was the encouragement from our fellow travelers and the porters who helped us. The climb to Doi Nok was the hardest point for us because we had to overcome our fear of heights. We almost cried many times. But when we reached the top of the mountain, the beautiful view around us made us forget all our tiredness and worries. It was a scene that was truly worth the effort. This was a trip where we didn't shower or wash our faces very often. But what we got back were experiences and positive energy from nature. The distance was over 12 kilometers and the tens of thousands of calories burned. It not only helped our body recover But it also helps to fully replenish our spirits. Finally, I hope to have the opportunity to go on a trip like this again in the future when my body is ready, my mind is ready, and the time is right because nature is always the place that makes us feel the most peaceful and happy. 🙂 📍Address: Doi Luang, Doi Nok, Phayao #VisitPhayao

Hiking up Doi Luang Phayao requires contacting the park officials before traveling. We drove and parked at the national park ranger unit at Dol.6 (Champa Thong), which is like a gathering point. My friend and I did not hire porters, so we shared the load of more than ten kilos each. When we started walking, it started to rain. The path was very wet and slippery. There were no toilets at the tent site. Normally, you can see the view of Kwan Phayao, but on the day we went, we could not see it at all. It was a 360-degree white mist. The next day, the rain stopped, so we climbed up Doi Nok. We called it climbing because we had to hold on to a sling to climb up. It was fun. We saw a beautiful sea of ​​mist from the top. The way down was a long, steep, muddy path. We slipped and fell once. For us, we thought that 2 days and 1 night was quite brutal because it was a long walk and the way down was quite steep. You should get fit before coming. #HikingTrip #Phayao
