this is a compact, challenging ride through an intriguing part of Laos to the Luang Prabang Cycling To Thailand Border - Northern Thailand. We set off from Luang Prabang and ride our way through this amazingly green mountain range with small communities of Hmong and Khmu hill tribes dotted throughout. Very light traffic adds to the enjoyment and allows us to enjoy the downhills. This is sure to be a memorable trip across the most scenic mountain range in Southeast Asia, with views for miles, and some satisfying riding.

It is the only Laotian province that is complete to the west of the Mekong River, the province is quite mountainous. It has the largest concentration of elephants in Laos; it is home to Laos’ majority of domesticated Asian elephants. Approximately 75% of the nation’s 560 domesticated elephants work in Sayaboury. Their main work duties are within the logging industry, which causes a loss in both wild and domestic elephant habitats. The area is little patrolled, which makes the enforcement of conservation measures difficult. It is also home to the annual Elephant Festival. The province is rich in timber and is considered the rice basket of northern Laos.
