Boklua View is set in a magnificent part of Thailand and nearby activities and attractions tend to be nature based and range from visiting the salt extraction wells, to trekking to remote hill tribe villages (where the locals don’t get “dressed up” for the tourists), to easier jungle walks and adventurous rafting on the Wa River. You can also head north through rarely visited villages to the Thai/Laos border crossing and take a boat or mini van to the ancient Laos capital of Luang Prabang.
