Best elephant camp around Chiang Mai/Chiang Rai?

almost 9 years ago about Chiang Mai, Thailand

Want the money we pay to go back to help care for the elephants.
Don't want to see them doing tricks etc.
Want somewhere we can interact with elephants that are being cared for properly..
Maybe a place you can go for a trek on them, feed & Bathe them etc.
Suggestions greatly appreciated, thanks :)

  Hi there! That's what I was looking for when I went to Chiang Mai - the best park is Elephant Nature Park.
  You can read my experience in my blog: http://www.thesiracusas.com/2011/04/11/i-could-move-to-chiang-mai/ and see this very interesting video made by National Geografic: http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/0510/feature5/video.html
  I hope this helps. almost 9 years ago

  Best by far is Thai Elephant Conservatio Center in Lampang, some 70 km from Chiang Mai. This is one of the best elephant centers in the whole world and is being funded by the Royal Family. almost 9 years ago
