Tree Top Explorer (3 Days/2 Nights)

The venue can only be reached by foot. No cars, no noise, no fumes! Main attraction is a system of zip-lines traversing steep gorges in touching distance to the waterfalls. A ‘via ferrata’ teases out the adventurous spirits of the visitor in a challenge to the limits of some. Take the chance having great fun in a simply stunning environment!

The Tree Top Explorer, a new jungle adventure in the mountains of Champassak province is blending fun with real nature experience. Officially opened early 2011, it quickly has become a must-go destination, with an enthusiastic feedback from visitors exceeding even most optimistic expectations. The project delivers its promises of being something hilariously exciting – and strictly adhering to international safety standards, without any compromise!

Supported by the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) and The International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN, Netherlands) for its environment friendly approach and the involvement of local communities, the project also aims to boost to Laos' tourism diversification. The cooperation with the local communities and the protection of wildlife remains a foremost concern.

Expect two full days of challenging jungle adventures. The first day is spent mostly hiking and ziplining. This experience is physically challenging and you will need to have a reasonably level of fitness. The weight limit of our ziplines is 120 kg.
