Akha Hill House is the only locally-owned and managed hill tribe retreat in Chiang Rai; all profits support local schools and cultural awareness programmes. The guesthouse’s main draw is its rural location, which encompasses mist-shrouded mountain landscapes, tea plantations, hot springs, and rice paddies. Discover the surroundings on either a guided or independent hike, during which you’re likely to see native wildlife and bird species. Huai Kaew waterfall is also within hiking distance of the accommodation.
