Adventure Travel and Unique Tours

3 days - 2 nights

Day 1 From Bagan we depart by jeep and cross the Irrawaddy River where we pass through small villages and farms as well as the barren desert plains of Western Burma before the road climbs into the hills and the vegetation becomes lush and green. We will stop for breaks at small villages along the way before arriving in the picturesque Chin village overhanging the mountains edge. There we will meet our local guide and go exploring in the village and surrounding area. Afterwards, we will continue to a forest guesthouse in the mountains above the village.

Day 2 We travel by jeep along a winding mountain road up Mount Victoria until we reach a foot trail. From here we will hike through an area of magnificent mountain views, forests and nature to the summit of Mount Victoria. This area is home to an assortment of wildlife and it may be possible to see leopard and bear prints among other animals as well a colorful assortment of bird life. As we ascend to the peak, we see a change in flora from deciduous forests to pine and hill savannah as we climb to over 10,000 feet in elevation. This area is abundant in wild flowers, wild orchids and butterflies. After lunch at the summit and our descent, we return to our guesthouse. In the evening, we will visit a Chin village and experience a traditional Chin bonfire and dance in which traditional alcohol and foods are served.

Day 3 We will travel to a Chin village where we will explore the village and meet some of its residents before beginning our journey by jeep back through the mountains to Bagan.
