Trek Inle Lake, Burma & Meet the Locals

If you’re after an authentic adventure experience when in Inle Lake, then this trek is for you! Meet locals, explore nature and discover the second largest lake in Myanmar all in this two day, one night adventure. Start your trek at Minetauk Jetty and make your way up to Minetauk Tawya monastry (meditation centre). Loosen up and unwind with a meditation service and enjoy some lunch before you observe the Fart Stedman during the World War II.

Once you’ve relaxed and recharged your body and soul, start your 3 hour trek to Inne. You’ll pass through the Paw Lapat village and have an endless view of farms and fields. As you trek, the bird’s eye view over the lake is marvellous and sure to be a highlight of the adventure. You’ll also have the opportunity to meet the friendly villagers and families of the Inne, Betaler and Paw Lapat villages. Through this exploration you will also see impressive farms of avocado, wheat, corn and orange. Spend the night at a room in one of the houses and feel free to interact with the warm and friendly locals, getting to know them over dinner.

On day two enjoy a local style breakfast before starting the rest of your adventure trek. After taking in views of the villages as you descend down the trail, you will pass through Tapay Kone village. As you zig zag through the land for two hours, you’re sure to work up quite the appetite! Indulge in a traditional style lunch that is conveniently wrapped in bamboo leaf before continuing down to the lake where you will be taken back to your hotel by boat.
