After an early lunch near the Summit we mountain bike down to and then through the Khanin valley, a lush forested valley . We mountain bike on dirt road crossing the Mae Khanin creek multiple times adding to the challenge. After 16 km we take a notable rest at the Nin Prapha Temple to refresh. From here we bike to the Obkhan River National Park. Note that from here it is truck supported , some may choose to be driven and some may keep biking. At the Ob khan National Park we take a 2.5 km roundtrip nature walk to marvel at the deep canyon carved by the river and time. There is now plenty time to take a well deserved dip in the Ob khan river. We return to Chiang Mai by about 5: 30 pm We are never in a hurry.
