We depart from Pakse and drive for about 50 minutes to starting point. From here, we walk through the Bolaven Plateau coffee and tea plantation to Pa Sanguane Dong Hua Sao (National Protected Forest). There are two routes to take depending on seasons in Laos.
*During the wet season from June to October, tour will not go pass Hua Tad Fan (top of this waterfall) because of the danger of excess water. We will walk pass another Bolaven Plateau coffee farm through the timber forest, and then to Tad Yeaung Waterfall (swimming is allowed). We stop for some fun and lunch at the base of the Tad Yeaung Waterfall. After lunch we continue trekking around the vicinity of the waterfall. Another 4 hours walk takes us to Ban 40 KM to spend at a night at a village home stay.
*During the dry season from November to May, it is a great time to trek to the Tad Fan Waterfall over the top to see its beauty and charm. Trek leads through the thick and dense forest where we can see animals such as: Nok Hua Quan, and other different kinds of bird. If we are lucky, monkeys will appear. Also many types of orchids will be seen. We have lunch in the forest. Stroll along to Tad Yeaung Waterfall; enjoy a dip in the waterfall pool before we continue trekking to the village at Ban 38 KM to spend the night. The residents in this village are Low Land Lao and Khmu. Their main profession is growing coffee and other kinds of farming.
Approximately: 50 minutes transfer/5 to 5 ½ hours trekking depending on the season
End of 1 day tour: The trip end at Ban 40 KM in the wet season or at Ban 38 KM in the dry season, where we return to Pakse (Approximately: 1 ½ hour transfer)
After breakfast and taste local Lao coffee, we start walking pass the coffee farms. We’ll see workers picking coffee beans at their own farms. We then walk to Champi Waterfall, enjoy natural surrounding at the Sung Sin Xai plain of limestone and lunch here. The clumps of rocks resemble animation characters. The last portion of the trek is to Kachep Waterfall. We finish our tour at Ban 38 KM where we return to Pakse.
