This remote province in central Laos is one of the newest areas to open up for tourism. The infrastructure here is not fully up and running so, just as in the Far North of the country, please allow for some minor on trip alterations if required.
Almost one quarter of the province is covered by three National Protected Areas, namely Phou Hin Boun, Nakai – Nam Theun, and Hi Namnon and it is the outstanding natural beauty and remoteness of these protected areas that has drawn travellers to the region. Exploring the lucid waters that cut through a warren of limestone mountains covered in knotted forests with hidden cave passages to undiscovered villages are the main attraction.
This is not travelling for the feint hearted, it is real adventure!
Accommodation is in village lodges and local homes and the food is only of the freshest local variety, no chance of any western creature comforts in this region but that said, you will be party to a genuine travel experience that is becoming all so rare as the world becomes a smaller place!
