Ko Taen (Katen) Mountain Bicycle Eco Adventure:

This one has it all! A full day of mountain biking, hiking, snorkeling, sunbathing and eating on the ecological paradise of Ko Taen (Katen). First ride our mountain bikes from "Red Bicycle" thru a rustic Muslim Village, thru coconut jungles, and beaches totally off the beaten path. We load up the bikes on a longtail boat and and find ourselves 20 minutes later on a secluded tropical Eco-island. Beautiful hand-hewn trails and boardwalks, with no motorized vehicles allowed, take us to a massive Mangrove forest on the west side of the island. A festive meal and snacks are prepared for us by the local residents. The coral reefs off the southeast coast are alive with fish making snorkeling a true adventure. This is natural Thailand at its best.

Our bicycles are state-of-the-art Cannondale Mountain Bikes and all equipment is provided.

We leave the "Red Bicycle" shop at 9:00 AM and return around 5:00 PM. About 8 hours of fun!

All of our trails have been mapped using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology. This not only helps you get a feel for a new trail but helps us to optimize our bike trails.
