Okay I cheated a bit. I only drove from Pai to Mae Hong Son which is about 150 kilometres. I hired a 125cc "twist and go" type scooter which was more than adequate. I am not a motor cyclist and usually drive a car. This is a stunning route with well over 1500 separate bends ( a local told me... More

Fantastic scenery, with some hairpin bends which aren't for the faint hearted. Make sure you allow enough time, although the distances aren't that big, with the roads it'll take longer than you think. Best to spend couple of nights in Pai, 1 in Mae hong son & 1 in Mae sariang. More

My husband doing the complete loop with me as the pillon. As we rented only 125cc, we can't ride fast with all the steep curves. Because of this we can enjoy the scency on the road better. Weather is super cold when up the mountains. A great riding experience. More

We waited years to drive this route because local people talk about it like it's a nightmare, but hey, how can you live in Chiang Mai and never drive the Mae Hong Son Loop, right? We started at Doi Inthanon and took a very small road over the back of the mountain. We had topo maps and the advice of... More

This is such a great driving experience after coping with the busy and crowded roads in Europe. The loop take you through some of the very best countryside in Thailand, on mostly smooth tarmac and the best thing is the roads are so quiet. You can just pull over to take so pictures, or leave the route to visit the... More
