Chiang Dao Elephant Camp

Chiang Dao Elephant Camp

The elephant training center at Chiang Dao combines training and jungle activities, with a one-on-one elephant encounter you’ll never forget.

The Chiang Dao Elephant Camp's crew of 32 elephants help log the surrounding teak forests and provide elephant rides through their natural jungle habitat.

Watch morning training sessions as cute baby elephants learn how to walk in line, work and bathe. The center also organizes bamboo rafting rides down the Ping River and a visit to a hill tribe village.

Practical Info

The Chiang Dao Elephant Camp is between Mae Taeng and Chiang Dao at Km 56 along Chian Mai-Fang Road.

It’s an hour’s drive north from the turn-off from the Chiang Mai-Lampang Road superhighway, and a 45 minute drive from Chiang Mai.
