Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp, Chiang Rai

VIEWS OVER THE MEKONG AND RAUK RIVERS

Immersed in 160 acres of tropical jungle with views over the winding Mekong and Rauk Rivers, it’s hard to believe you’re only an hour out of Chiang Rai. The views from the Anantara are spectacular, taking in the emerald valleys of the Golden Triangle and stretching into neighbouring Laos and Myanmar. The design is inspired by the historic Lanna Kingdom, with ample use of vaulted ceilings, polished teak flooring and hill tribe textiles. The rooms and suites have huge picture windows and balconies for taking in the gorgeous surroundings.

Home to its very own award-winning elephant camp, Anantara offers you an exclusive insight into the world of these gentle giants. You can join these rescued elephants and their mahouts on treks through the dense jungle, forests and hills of northern Thailand, and share in the pleasure as the whole herd goes down to the river to bathe. You can even spend a night in one of the resort’s ‘Jungle Bubbles’ for a completely immersive night under the stars with the elephants roaming the grounds around you. Otherwise, you’ll fill your days with visits to the restorative spa, cooking classes and relaxation time by the fabulous curved pool.
