Flight of the Gibbon writeup in City Life Magazine

City Life Magazine, 4th April 2008

Strapped in harness flying over ancient forest, sixty five feet high, birds flying beneath you and adrenalin buzzing, is an experience you are not likely to achieve too often in your lifetime. Flight of the Gibbon™ takes you to the small village of Mae Kompong, situated outside San Kampaeng amidst pristine jungle. From there you embark on a tree top journey carried by a series of flying foxes. From some lofty vantage points, you can hardly see the forest floor; and while elevated on the wire, flying from one tree to the next your heart might just skip a beat or two. This is one of Chiang Mai’s best outdoor, eco-friendly adventures. No let-downs, hypes or misadventures here. It’s a very professional outfit; all the equipment is of top quality and safety is paramount. After the gibbon emulation you are treated to lunch and then a short trek to a waterfall.

They can pick you up from town. If you decide to drive, be prepared for many small winding lanes. Head to San Kampaeng, past the hot springs, follow signs for Tharnthong Lodges and it’s about 5km further than the lodges on the right.

“Giving Back” – The Project

Our Goal is to plant 1,000,000 trees over the next 20 years. Initiated in 2008, we have planted 18,500 flourishing plants in the rainforest so far.

Our" Village Green" program supports local villages by keeping roads clean, preserving. Thai culture and rainforest tree planting. We also support a very successful wildlife re-population program involving many native species.

We are partnering with the Thai Government so we can do the ultimate good... preserving Thailand’s precious eco-system.

We educate everyone about the rain forest eco-system. More than 1000 children per year, (mostly orphans and underprivileged children) fly each year free of charge. Another 2000 children fly for a modest fee. Education and wildlife awareness are our major goals.
