Doi Nang Non

Doi Nang Non is a mountain range in northern Thailand featuring limestone formations throughout its structure. The terrain contains karst caves and water features that create a complex natural landscape across several ridges.

The mountain range has served for centuries as a natural boundary in northern Thailand and forms part of the larger Daen Lao Range geological system. It has long shaped travel routes and settlement patterns across the region.

The mountain gets its name from a legend about a sleeping woman, as the ridge's shape resembles a reclining figure when viewed from certain angles. This story remains alive in local stories and shapes how people see the landscape.

The mountain range is accessible year-round through multiple hiking trails and entry points from various towns in Chiang Rai Province. Visitors should prepare for changing weather conditions, as elevation and location bring rain and mist, especially during monsoon seasons.

The mountain system contains numerous caves and waterfalls formed by its limestone structure, now part of a protected forest park. These hidden features and water formations make it an unexpected destination for exploration beyond the main hiking routes.
