Where is the Luang Prabang Mountain Range?

The Luang Prabang Range is a mountain range straddling northwestern Laos and Northern Thailand. Most of the range is located in Sainyabuli Province (Laos), as well as Nan and Uttaradit Provinces (Thailand). The range is part of the Luang Prabang montane rain forests ecoregion.

They form the easternmost range of the Thai highlands. The range runs roughly in a North/South direction between the Mekong and the Nan Rivers.

The vegetation is evergreen hill forest on the highest altitudes of the range height and mostly dry deciduous forest below 1,000 m, with an abundance of teak trees, which has led to heavy deforestation. Like in most ranges of the area, a great proportion of the original forest cover has disappeared due to shifting agricultural practices and illegal logging.
