Half- and Full Day Treks

Hmong Batik Class
Batik is a resist dye technique created by wax drawn motifs. Traditionally, Hmong people use hemp as a base fabric. The batik design is used for traditional costume and household items such as blankets. Since the Hmong do not have written language, they create symbols from their surroundings and spiritual belief and use these symbols throughout their cloth to express several aspects of their lives.
Learn how to make Hmong batik from a Hmong lady in the village.
Hill Tribe people in Thailand
In Thailand, hill tribe is usually known for all various ethnic groups who mostly inhabit the mountainous northern and western regions. Migrating from various parts of China and Southeast Asia, hill tribe people in Thailand have different systems of customs, laws and beliefs. There are at least ten hill tribes living in the country – many of them can be divided into distinct subgroups. Each tribe has distinctly crafted costumes, though many men and children now adopt Western clothes for everyday wear.
