Canopy tours originated in the lush rainforests of Costa Rica where adventurous biologists devised a system of cables and platforms that allowed them to study this previously inaccessible ecosystem. It wasn’t long before this developed into a breathtaking eco-tourism activity that not only allowed people to enter and experience the upper realm of a rainforest, but raised awareness to the plight and beauty of the world’s endangered indigenous forests.

The pristine village of Mae Kompong lies just 45 minutes southeast of Chiang Mai. Neighbouring two national parks-the Jair Son Park and the Mae Dakrai National Park. With the little way of development the surrounding ecosystem remains incredibly intact and is recognized as a hotspot of biodiversity. At 1,300 m. above sea level this hill station is commonly 4-5 celcius degree cooler than Chiang Mai- what better way to cool down while you're having fun!
