The Mae Hong Son Loop: The ultimate road trip guide.
The Short Answer
The Loop is legendary for a reason. 1,864 curves over 600km of mountain roads. It takes you through Pai, Mae Hong Son, and Mae Sariang. It is best done in 4-6 days.
Who it’s for
- Drivers/Riders: It is a driving experience first.
- Culture seekers: Real Shan and Hill Tribe culture deep in the borders.
Who it’s not for
- People who get car sick: It is relentless turning.
When it makes sense
- November: Sunflowers (Bua Tong) are blooming in Khun Yuam.
Common mistakes
- Rushing it: Doing it in 2 days is misery. You see nothing but tarmac.
- Skipping Mae Sariang: It is the most authentic quiet town on the route.
Local reality
It is long. You will get tired. Plan rest days.
