Nam Lod Cave - Mae Hong Son's Hidden Wonder

Deep in the lush forests of Mae Hong Son province, Nam Lod Cave is a natural wonder that blends adventure, mystery, and ancient history. This massive limestone cave stretches over 1.5 kilometres and is filled with dramatic stalactites, echoing chambers, and even a river running through its heart. You’ll explore the cave on foot and by bamboo raft (season dependant), guided by local Shan villagers with lanterns that cast flickering light on the cave’s haunting beauty. Don’t miss the Coffin Cave, where ancient teakwood coffins—believed to be over 2,000 years old—rest high above in hidden alcoves. Nam Lod isn’t just a cave—it’s an immersive journey into Thailand’s geological and cultural past. 🕘 Open daily | 🎟️ Entrance + guide/raft: 300~450 THB per group 👟 Wear sturdy shoes and prepare for some climbing 🌿 Best visited in the dry season (Nov–Mar) for safe rafting and clearer paths #thailandtrip #localguides #maehongson
