Is it safe?

signThe legacy of the 1970s of course makes off roading in Cambodia a bit different to offroading in other countries, and if you are riding near the Thai border you will most likely see landmine signs and deminers at work.

Mined areas do mean that it's not possible to  veer off into untouched fields or forests, but not at all that the quality of the biking is compromised! Instead it means that we stick to well established dirt roads, ox cart trails and single tracks which are used by villagers.

ALL routes used by Dancing Roads Dirt Bike Tours are well researched regarding landmines and security, and by knowing the language we also double check with the locals for more recent developments. First-aid and tool kits are carried on all trips and the latest road conditions are checked beforehand to account for seasonal changes and recent road work.
