Sport & Activities Wildlife Laos’s pristine landscape hosts a variety of flora and fauna, including rare primates, mammals and birds. Freshwater dolphins can be found in the Mekong river. There is still some unexploded ordnance in the countryside, and official advice should be taken about which areas to avoid. Trekking Travellers can head to the hills independently or take part in locally organised guided tours. Mountain biking The lack of cars makes cycling a good proposition. Terrain can be difficult, however, and there are not many roads. Visitors are advised to bring their own bicycles, though there are some for hire in the larger towns. |
