Wandering around temples to try delicious local foods (we had, at different times throughout the afternoon/night, chicken and rice, prawns, and some bar snack foods with drinks later on when we took a break halfway through), it is easy and enjoyable to get lost in the markets. We ended up enjoying some drinks and sitting down to watch a fantastic jazz band play in a little bar.
Four to six hours long - depending entirely on how often you stop throughout the day - Samoeng Loop takes you past waterfalls, vast valley views, towering mountains, cafes - some of which are amazingly set down in the streams so that your feet dip in the cool pebbled waters while you eat and drink - and fruit and vegetable farms.
