Things to do Ethical Elephant Sanctuary: Bamboo Rafting & Sticky Waterfall

Join us for an unforgettable full-day experience combining ethical elephant care, adventure, and nature exploration. Start your journey in the lush countryside of Mae Taeng, where you’ll meet rescued elephants in a no riding, no chains environment. Learn about their stories, feed them, and walk alongside them in a respectful and meaningful way. Enjoy a fun mud spa and bathing session in the river — a true highlight of the day. Continue your adventure with a bamboo rafting experience, gently floating along a scenic jungle river surrounded by mountains. End your day at the famous Sticky Waterfall (Bua Tong Waterfall), where you can climb up natural limestone rocks with ease — a unique and fun experience you won’t find anywhere else.
