Day 1: Pakse - Boloven Plateau

Upon arrival into Pakse either by public bus from Cambodia or by bus or plane from Vientiane or Luang Prabang, a private transfer will be waiting to take you to Tad Fane in the Boloven Plateau, souther Laos. You'll travel straight through the Laotian countryside past villages, temples and farmland. The well paved road will change into sandy roads as you near the green Boloven Plateau. The resort that you'll be staying at is hidden amidst the dense rainforest across from 2 foaming waterfalls. The water plunges 200 metres down a gorge; an amazing sight. You'll be able to enjoy your green surroundings from your veranda or while on a trek through the natural wilderness.

Day 2: Boloven Plateau

The Boloven Plateau, in Southern Laos, lies approximately at an altitude of 1200 metres. Because of this the climate on the plateau is pleasantly cool, even during the summer. During July and August you can expect rain showers from time to time that will give the entire area a wonderfully green hue. The villages on the plateau are only accessible via sand trails; this is one of the reasons why the area is so genuine. Many minorities live in the area such as the Laven, Katu and the Alak. The people here are known for their hand-woven materials and tattoos on their face, both heavily influenced by the Khmer. 

The eco-lodge you'll be staying at is located amidst the Dong Hua Sao natural reserve. The resort can organises guided hikes through the area (at a small cost) known for its many waterfalls and diverse flora.
