scubascuba3 Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Anyone know of any expat groups that do trekking 20km+ type walks? I'm not talking about running HHH for example. There are cycle groups so there must be trekking groups? I imagine some of the treks will start out of Pattaya. I've done treks over Thailand, I'm looking for something closer to Pattaya and area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmccarty Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Why not the HHH? They cover some great areas and could care less if you stay on-on afterword to drink beer with them! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No rule that you have to run, always many walking at their own speed then you can drink a few beers afterwards and make a lot of friends. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmccarty Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Yes, I have walked lots of runs since a number of injuries a few years back. Far less than I should, but enjoyed the walks none-the-less. Nice people for the most part and more local geographical knowledge than anyone else!

Cake Monster Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 HHH had an organised run the other weekend past my front door. They dont just run, as othersd have said as a considerable number seemed to just be out for a stroll, and their course seems to take in some good Country and they also have different lengths of course. If I was you, Id give it a try, you have nothing to loose, and possibly something to gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rimmer Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 HHH stands for Hash House Harriers Runs start around 5 in the afternoon and are usually around 7 to 10km or one hour for the front runners. After the run there will be some drinks and a circle where the quality of the run is discussed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubascuba3 Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 I'm looking for hill treks through woodland that kind of thing. Golden buddha mountain area looks like it has potential Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BumGun Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 "There are cycle groups" Can you tell me more about this? As to walking... We (m & f) walk from about Soi 9, up Walking St, turn left past the kart track, cut across Bush Mountain, go up the hill through the park to the Big Buddah or out under the Patts sign along the walkway and then back down. But we'd love to know places to hike that are further afield as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
