A Peek into the Mystical Mountain Destinations of Cambodia


Mention the fact that you may be travelling to Cambodia and most people would only imagine visiting Angkor Wat. While there’s no doubt that the beauty and architecture of Wat temples is well worth the visit; however, the Cambodian landscape holds within its lap many-a-hidden jewels waiting to be explored by individuals bitten by the travel bug. Herein we shall acquaint you with Cambodia’s mountain destinations that, though less glamorized on the travel map, make for excellent getaways and trekking opportunities with the chance to experience life in the leisure lane.

Ratanankiri, the town bordering Laos and Vietnam, is one of the best Cambodian destinations to experience nature in all its glory. Designated as a protected area, Ratanankiri not only offers you the opportunity to trail a lush rain forest complete with meandering streams, but also to admire the unique biodiversity of Cambodia. And, for those who would like to delve deeper into the culture and lifestyle of the Khmer people along with exploring nature, the neighboring city of Ban Lung with its bustling market and Kachak village prove to be golden opportunities.



However, for the true nature enthusiast looking forward to eco-tourism, a visit to the pristine locales of Mondulkiri should rank highly on your list of Cambodia adventure trip. Replete with forested mountains, majestic waterfalls and rolling hills with traditional Phong houses peeking through the greenery, Mondulkiri is the nature lover’s playground. Located in the eastern province of Cambodia, boasting of minimal population and vistas untouched by commercial tourism, this quaint little town offers you the perfect chance to experience the rustic lifestyle of the hill tribes and nature at its best. Treating Sen Monorom as the base comes highly recommended, since exploring its surrounding areas gets that much easier. Do consult your holiday manager on how to make the most of your cambodia luxury trip with recommendations of such pristine destinations and more.
