Have you “done” the Doi?

 Ever heard of Doi Inthanon? Well, you will have done on our blog as we love it there and so do our clients!! The “Doi” is Thailand’s highest mountain at 2565meters.  Nick named “Roof of Thailand” and for good reason as the views are amazing. 

Think you are up to the challenge of cycling this classic climb? Too tough for you? Would you like to wear this T-shirt?


Road cycling up Doi Inthanon has got to be one of the toughest road bike rides in this part of the world. With an ascent of 2260 meters in 48 kms and with gradients exceeding 23% in places, more than three times as long as and certainly competing with the famous French classic L'Alpe d’Huez. Set in the most spectacular mountain range in Northern Thailand and with top quality, wide sweeping roads, Doi Inthanon is fast becoming the most popular challenge for road cyclists in South East Asia. 


You have  heard of the “mythic” cols of France,  now take up the challenge and cycle the mammoth climbs in our Thai Highlands Tour and wear this T-shirt with pride. Available exclusively from Crouching Tiger Cycling Tours, it can be yours!
