Philosophy & sustainability
We believe that every elephant deserves a life of dignity. Partnering with the Golden Triangle Asian Elephant Foundation, we’ve rescued and adopted more than 20 elephants from Thailand’s crowded city streets to help them lead happy lives in our jungle surroundings.
Location
Surrounded by misty mountains and mighty rivers, our Camp finds itself in the wilderness where Thailand, Burma and Laos converge. Forty-five miles north of downtown Chiang Rai, we are also within a four-hour scenic drive from Chiang Mai, Thailand’s second-largest city.
Accommodation
Rustic yet elegant safari-style décor uses local materials such as hardwood, bamboo and leather for customised, handcrafted furniture. Each tent has its own distinctive colour scheme.
View to Burma and the mountains and Laos; or the jungle and Golden Triangl.
Dining
Nong ya. Savour the finest of Thai, Laotian and Burmese cooking, along with Western classics, in our breezy pavilion with rustic hardwood floors.
Burma bar. Settle into an overstuffed leather couch and sip a cocktail while taking in the lush Ruak River basin and Elephant Camp views.
SPA & Wellness
Unwind from your elephant adventure as large poultices filled with camphor, lime and lemongrass massage the whole body.
After a foot bath of refreshing kaffir lime grown at the Camp, local herbal oils and smooth natural bamboo sticks target deep-seated muscle tension.
