Walk with Elephant Program at the Elephant Jungle Sanctuary offers a profound look into the lives of these majestic creatures. This extended experience moves beyond the standard camp visit, focusing on the elephants' natural behaviors as they roam through the lush forest-covered hills of Northern Thailand. Your journey begins with a scenic drive into the mountains, where you will be welcomed by local Karen guides and introduced to the rescued members of the herd. After changing into traditional Karen clothing, you will spend the morning bonding with the elephants through feeding and observation. The highlight of the day is the extended jungle trek, where you will walk side-by-side with the elephants as they forage, socialize, and explore. You’ll learn about the unique social dynamics of the herd and the various forest plants they use for food and medicine. After a delicious Thai buffet lunch, the adventure continues with a visit to a secluded jungle waterfall for a refreshing swim, followed by the famous "Elephant Spa." Join the herd for a therapeutic mud bath and a playful wash in the river. This full-day journey is a peaceful, non-intrusive way to witness the intelligence and beauty of elephants while directly supporting their long-term conservation.
