Debbie and I stayed in this village after a trek in the Nam Ha NPA. The villages in the area take turns on hosting trekkers as a way of suplementing their income although I had the feeling that not everyone in the village was into this. At times I felt a bit like an unwanted guest.

Location
Village in Nam Ha NPA, Laos
Top Tip
The lower costs of the monsoon season from May to October is prone to risk of washed-out roads and slippery muddy trails while trekking. November to January are cool and dry but expect peak-season crowds in Luang Prabang.
