| A relatively small town, Mae Sariang is quieter and less touristed than others nearby. It\'s a great place to sit by the river and relax, or to use as a base for trekking. With a number of wats in town and lovely riverside scenery there\'s plenty to explore, and daily local life in a small town means that there\'s plenty to observe.
Most guesthouses organise boat trips on the Salween River and, political conditions allowing, there are plenty of opportunities for trekking in this area where you can visit a number of Karen villages.
It is supposedly possible to organise combined rafting and hiking trips all the way to Umphang. We would be interested in hearing from anyone who has completed such a feat!
