“Doi” means mountain in Northern Thai. It is the word used for the hills and peaks that shape the landscape of Northern Thailand. Doi Trail Research was born in Chiang Mai, a city that lives at the base of these mountains and is shaped by them.

We are a community for the outdoor curious. Drawn to trails, gravel roads, and the quiet challenge of movement, we see each effort as more than activity. It is a form of research. When we move through the outdoors, we begin to understand something deeper within ourselves. Our limits. Our habits. Who we are becoming.

This is the work.

Through community, events, and storytelling, we create space for that process. We are here to contribute to mountain and movement culture, beginning in Northern Thailand and extending beyond it.

We support those building with the same intent. From Chiang Mai to Bangkok, across Thailand and around the world. The culture we care about is not defined by geography. It is defined by how we move, how we explore, and how we grow.
