This is the day for people who want to be tired at the end of it.

Khao Sok's rainforest is one of the oldest on Earth, and the point of this day is the walk itself: distance, heat, roots, river crossings, and a destination you can only reach on foot. Your guide grew up on these trails, so you are not following a path - you are being shown a place. The river is with you most of the way, and there are waterfalls along it. Wild elephants and monkeys live in this forest; whether you see them is luck.

Three kilometres in, there is a hut standing in the forest beside a waterfall. Lunch is made there, over fire, in lengths of bamboo. It is trekker food: simple, made with what is out there. Eating it beside a waterfall three kilometres from the nearest road is the point.

Then you walk back out, and the day ends with tubing on the Sok River - floating at whatever speed the water decides, canopy sliding past overhead. The laziest ending to the most demanding day we run, by design. Max 15.
