Located deep in the jungle, you can experience life with the elephants like very few visitors will ever have the opportunity to.

Elephant Jungle Sanctuary is an ethical and sustainable eco-tourism project. The sanctuary was founded in July 2014 in the area of Chiang Mai after concerns were raised for the local population of elephants. The Karen Hill-Tribes and Chiang Mai locals are joining to come up with a solution to help maintain the healthy population of elephants located throughout Thailand. Elephant Jungle Sanctuary specializes in looking after injured and mistreated elephants which have been rescued from all areas of Thailand.

This is a no riding camp, we try to respect our elephant and hope to share with you our passion!
