Pu Xang Hae, Dong Nadet and Don Phou Vieng.
Katang, Mangkong, Pako, Tri, Suay, Phuthai and Lao.
Savannakhet offers some very interesting remote trekking
opportunities near the Vietnam border.
Those on the 3-day trek through the Don Pu Vieng National
Protected Area often see the endangered Eld’s deer, silver
languars and horn bills, all of which are difficult to spot in Laos.
Four-day treks into
the Phu Xang Hae National Protected area take you through rocky mountain ranges, and
highlight local Puthai culture and bush survival skills. Shorter 1 and 2-day walks to
Dong Natad lead to a towering ancient forest, a sacred lake and That Ing Hang
stupa.
