About us
Our project is located in the beautiful Luang Prabang surroundings, just 15km out of town. The Camp/Project is located on a river and offers accommodation and housing as well as a perfect environment. Nearby secondary forests offer feeding places and the river is perfect for washing and swimming. At the moment the Elephants go out for scenic rides with our guests, which helps to give a future for more animals.
The newly opened Elephant Trail seems to be one of the most beautiful trails in Asia. Here the animals take our guests to a natural environment and the nearby waterfall or village.
As we are a private initiative and have no support from government or non government organizations we have to do the best to keep our Elephant Project running. YOU and our visitors help us to feed, train and maintain our Asian Elephants which found a new and caring home.
During the tourists visit they elephant ride, trek, bike or Kayak and all these tours give other Elephants a chance to join our small team very soon. And they will be freed from brutal logging!!!
