Up for a challenge ? +60 km epics, 2000 meter climbs, mixed up with super technical descents.
Feel like shuttling only? Shuttle up and smash gnarly downhill trails all day long.
Something in-between? Ride flowy singletrack trough villages and valleys and have still enough time to shuttle a few laps in the aftenoon.
Mellow all day epic? No problem, single track, fire roads, coffee plantations, lakes, all right at your doorstep.

Besides riding, Chiang Mai is an amazing city and has lots to offer, if would be a shame not to experience any of it. From its famous buddhist temples to its local cuisine, there is something for everyone, from visiting an elephant rehabilitation sanctuary, bungee jumping, zip-lining ,hiking and rafting, shopping to renting enduro MX bikes, or party the night away in the city’s excellent night life, its all at your doorstep.
Chiang Mai is Thailand’s second biggest city, located in the mountainous north of the country. In stark contrast with Bangkok, Chiang Mai is a haven of peace and tranquility, this laid-back city is nestled along green forest foothills of the Doi Suthep-Pui mountain range and will be our base. The shuttles are fast and our hotel is conveniently located close to the mountains, far away from mass tourism and in the more laid back ’hip’ part of town.
