A Trip to Nat Ma Taung
Chin mountain state on the western country offers stunning views and highland cultures and traditions of native hill tribe peoples. The hiking to the peak of Mt. Victoria also called Nat Ma Taung in Myanmar (10200 feet or 3109 meters above sea level) is arranged as day return climb or 3 to 4 days walk.
There are some travel arrangements from Bagan.
Bagan to Mount Victoria national park can be travelled by driving. In the afternoon we will be climbing the foot hills of Chin state. On the way enjoy the scenes, village lives, and views of tribal people. Overnight stay at a guesthouse near the national park. Make friend with local guide and enjoy being in the hills with pines and other plants.
After the breakfast we will start walking to Mt. Victoria. Chin hiking guide and helpers will carry the stuff while you take care of your own back packs. On the way study the plants, trees, flowers and birds. Visit a Chin village on the way. A day walk is approximately 12 miles or 19 km. Overnight in a forest hut made of bamboo.
We will continue walking uphill to the last camp, the next morning. We will pass a dirt road used by local people. After walking about 8 miles or 13 km we will arrive at the forest hut which is the last camp.
We will ascend to the peak at 10200 feet. It is about nearly 10 km and you will reach the peak in the morning. Enjoy the scenery and take photos at the hill-top pagoda. We will descend the mountain using another way, 6 km, to the place where our jeep will be waiting. Back to the guesthouse for rest and overnight. When we reach the base of the mountain, we can return back to Bagan the same day or the next day.
