Ride to Dragon Fish River and bat cave, then continue to Holy River water fall and swimming, followed by a harder ride up to the 500 year-old Sugarcane Stream burial jars left by a little-known civilization, and a larger bat cave. You can visit here in the afternoon, or the following morning.

Sleep at Sugarcane Stream, in a comfortable hammock, with net, in a simple forest shelter. Bike over the O'Peam Pika and O'Peam Krovanh (Cardamom tree) rivers to Betel Nut waterfall and forest shelter.

After breakfast, ride to Loom Stream mountain community, with banana plantations often visited by elephants, and more burial jars. Then return to Chi Phat, with optional detours to High Waterfall or Bodhi Tree rapids, Bald Mountain viewpoint, or keep your bikes for a village tour.
