Muang Ngoi

Isolated on the Nam Ou, Muang Ngoi has no road access to the outside world. In fact, aside from the crazy Kubota tractors and a few scooters, there is not much in the way of land vehicles.

This isolation had not prevented Muang Ngoi from becoming a small trekking center, complete with riverside bungalows and one dusty little main street, street being used in the loosest possible sense. There is not a paced road for many, many kilometers.
