| Doi Inthanon National Park near Chiang Mai Thailand
is by far the best birding area in the Kingdom. Our local guide lives
in the Park, speaks English
very well and knows the locations of various birds. This saves you valuable time
thus seeing more species per day. There will also be time to enjoy the hill tribe
villages and hiking on beautiful trails. Here is a list of the birds that
I spotted at Doi Inthanon between Nov. 2005 and
March. 2008. It will
give you a good idea of what you can see on a 2 day trip to the park.
We provide transportation to, from and in the Park from Chiang Mai Thailand.
A guide from Chiang Mai and driver will also go along with you.
Because of the different altitudes from 100 to
over 2000 meters, a wide variety of species can be seen. Accommodations are
in a clean Bamboo Bungalow with private toilet and shower. Meals will also
be provided to meet your taste. You will be given the colorful Birds of Thailand
field guidebook along with a Doi Inthanon Birds Checklist.
