Motorbike Riding in Thailand from Chiang Kham to Nan town

Motorbike Riding in Thailand

This is day 6 of a motorbike trip in 2016 in North Thailand. This last day was 162 km starting at 6:55am in a still foggy Chiang Kham and ending at 11:00 in home sweet in Nan. The route I took : Route 1148 from Chiang Kham to Tha Wang Pha and then Route 101 to Nan. If you are interested to make motorbike trips in Northeast or North Thailand and need some information or help, please contact me by email at The Little Elephant Traveling in Thailand.

The first part of route 1148 is a bit boring but starting at Phu Lankha (great view) the road gets better and better. Stunning view, mostly good road and many, many curves. Along the route I made a small side-trip at Pha Lak to visit a temple at a huge rock of limestone-mountain. Along route 1148 are not much places for snack & drink, actually only at Phu Lankha, Pha Lak and Song Kwae. And as far as I remember only 1 small gasoline station. At Tha Wang Pha is a PTT gasoline station with 7/11 and Amazone. And of course along route 101 there are some small restaurants.
