During July 2016 we embarked on a road trip departing from Bangkok and going to the north west corner of Thailand. There wasn’t much of a plan before we left, other than to drive no more than about 400 kms a day, do the Saturday hash run in Chiang Mai whilst passing by and drive around the Mae Hong Son loop, before finally heading back to Bangkok.
The first stop was at Sukothai, followed by Chiang Mai, Pai, Mae Hong Son, Mae Suring water fall, Mae Chaem, Hot and Kamphaeng Phet with some other stops in between. The maps below show the journey split onto 3 sections. The total distance travelled was 2609 kms over 10 days.
