midasthailand Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Very nice, So are these caves in Kanchanaburi or Northern Thailand? Would be very interested to go on a guided tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slip Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I haven't looked at all the pictures, but I notice Cave Lodge mentioned in one of the first. Cave Lodge is in Soppong (sp)? which is between Pai and Mae Hong Son on the Mai Hong Song loop. Great place to visit. I was lucky enough to see the 2001 Leonids meteor shower there.

msg362 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 John,an Australian, at Cave Lodge, has lived there for more than 25 years, great place to stay: caving, kayaking, trekking Look up www.cavelodge.com Get a mini bus from CM to Soppong ( about 45 km past Pai- don't go via MHS). From Soppong you need a motorbike taxi for the 8 km to the lodge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slip Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 We hired bikes out of Pai, and rode those crappy chicken chasers up and down the mountain to get there. I was back there about 3 years ago, and although they have discontinued the kayak trip I did through Tham Lot, there are still lots of options for thrill seekers or the more sedate. Great place.

They still do the kayaking through the cave & down to Soppong. Did it last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
