Overland Travel Across Borders: A Tale of Two Frontiers
Veun Kham Dom Kralor Mekong Remote Rustic Boat
A journey across the border between Cambodia and Laos is an entry into one of the most remote and undeveloped corners of Southeast Asia. The 555-kilometer frontier is defined by dense forests and the Mekong River. For travelers, this is an off-the-beaten-path route that promises a glimpse of a region largely untouched by mass tourism.

There is only one official land crossing available for you: the Veun Kham (Cambodia) – Dom Kralor (Laos) border point. It is located in a very remote area, and until recently, the journey involved a combination of boats and rough roads. While the infrastructure is slowly improving, it remains a rustic and adventurous crossing.
