History
The Chiang Mai countryside sits within the historic Lanna region; many rural tracks evolved from old trade and irrigation routes that supported centuries of rice farming.
Conservation
Ride on established trails, avoid disturbing irrigation channels and farm plots, and never feed wildlife; the area’s ecosystems are sensitive to erosion from off-track riding.
