Magnificent view of the valley. Your walk will continue in the middle of cashew and coconut forests. You will make a few stops in remote villages in the forest, inhabited by smiling but shy locals. Next stop in the village of Sangke Lak, to immerse yourself a little more in the daily life of the locals, and to have a lunch break in the form of a picnic. Let yourself be tempted by the possibility of savoring fresh coconuts picked on the spot by yourself, under the guidance of a villager of course! The walk will continue under the shade of the trees to the Along Thum pagoda. Overnight at homestay or at a local pagoda.

Day 3: Vat Along Thum - Reclining bouhda - Waterfall
