Day 1: Travel to Chi Phat

  • 1 Dinner
Depart Phnom Penh and travel by bus to Andong Tuek (approximately 4 hours), a small settlement along the Stoeng Prat River. Meet your local guide and board a local boat for a two hour cruise to Chi Phat. Along the way keep your eyes open for the birdlife that lives along the river. Upon your arrival, leave your luggage and enjoy a leisurely 1 mile (2 km) walk to the Chhay Chrey rapids. Feel free to take a dip in the river or relax on the bank. Return by motorbike taxi to Chi Phat and overnight in a community bungalow this evening.

Travelers are afforded the opportunity to experience Chi Phat as a result of the Wildlife Alliance. This organization is dedicated to providing a fair livelihood to the local villagers, as well as protecting the surrounding forest. All of the Chi Phat guides are native to the community and are experts of the area.

Day 2: Trek to Antong Prang

  • 1 Breakfast, 1 Lunch, 1 Dinner
Rise early this morning to enjoy a spectacular sunrise on a boat overlooking the Stoeng Prat River. Enjoy a picnic breakfast on the water as the region awakes. The peaceful ride on a row boat allows you to enjoy the nature and wildlife in silent tranquility.

Arrive to Domnak Khos, a wildlife observation post and the starting point for your trek. For this first day of trekking, an English speaking forest ranger guides travelers about the region, as well as points out wildlife. This region is known for having the largest population of wild Asian elephants as well as leopards, sun bears, and gibbons. Keep your eyes open as you trek and you may get lucky enough to spot one! These forests are also the habitat for over 450 species of birds - four which are endemic to these mountains. Trek to O'Chonleas Pran and take a break for lunch. Continue on to the Antong Prang campsite where you spend the night. Visit Veal Ta Prak, a clearing in the forest with a large pond where wildlife typically gather at dusk and dawn. Enjoy today's sunset in this spot before walking back to your campsite. Overnight tonight in hammocks at Antong Prang.

Hiking Distance: 8.6 miles (14 km)

Trek back to the campsite for breakfast and continue on your journey to Chhay Kpous waterfall. Stop here for a rest, swim and picnic lunch before trekking onward to Chi Phat village mid-afternoon where you can leisurely explore the village. Enjoy a simple dinner at the community project headquarters. Overnight in a community bungalow again this evening.

Our guide and driver were very good with their knowledge and were very helpful with our questions. It was a very pleasant visit that would have been impossible to do on our own. Hotels and restaurants were fantastic. The special places we got to go to, like the kitchens, were great. Enjoyed the entire trip!
