AIRAVATA is a “new generation” elephant camp, a responsible and ethical alternative to mass tourism. Located a few kilometres South of Ratanakiri’s capital, AIRAVATA is a place where indigenous mahouts treat elephants in the best possible way as they enjoy their work. There, travellers can meet the gentle giants in optimum natural conditions.

We did the afternoon excursion which lasted 3-4h. We started by being introduced to the elephants and their Cornac (elephant rider), offered them bananas to thank them to let us us join them in the forest and went for a 2h walk. We left with 3 elephants. My friends were on one elephant back and i chose to walk beside them. I really recommend doing so, I had a lot of fun walking between them and seeing them from this angle. In the last 10min of the walk, of of the cornac made me jump on the elephant with him, without the chair thingy. and then we went to clean the elephants in the river, that was amazing! Pierre-Yves, the founder of the association tells you about how the elephants were rescued and their individual stories, And how they had to educate the COrnac to not use violence on the animals. He was amazing to listen to! They are now building a village to reproduce the ancient ways and tradition of the region.

A friend and I rented a moto and found this waterfall a short distance from town. It is a nice sized waterfall with a great little suspension bridge leading to it. Great place for some photos! They also have some examples of traditional houses up in the parking area. It seems like a favorite location for locals but few western tourists seem to visit this location. We found it a great place to spend an hour.
8. Virachey National Park
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 5 reviews
The National Park with its various landscapes is a great place to experience Cambodia's nature. Get out of the civilization and start your adventure into the forests of Virachey National Park, where you will get to a point were no mobile phone connection is available anymore. Living in the rhythm of Nature a unique experience! Trekking with the only offical National Park trekking provider can include Kayaking, indigenous homestay, camping in the forest, community-based-ecotourism, etc.
