Trekking Spots in Cambodia

My brother lives in Ho Chi Minh and has from the 24-28 off. I will be in Cambodia already and He can leave the night of the 23rd to get to PP. I'd like to do some trekking and have him back in the afternoon of the 28th so he can be home the night of. What recommendations would you make for a 3-4 day trekking trip. We're both pretty roughneck and very basic accommodation (mosquito net). Please do bear in mind the time constraints!

on a side note I'll be motor biking up to Preah Vihear in January. I'm looking for as much variety as I can get.

Thanks!

I'm sorry, but my recommendations are not possible due to travel time and your brother's limited stay.

try chi phat if you can get the bus from PP on the 24th - check arrival time for brother and departure times of buses to Koh Kong

Chi Pat was one of the places I had in mind. Too much travel time involved for a 3-4 day trip. Not realistic at all. Damn shame it's a good place.

I know but on the off chance that they could get out of PP on the morning bus they would have 3 full days in Chi Phat before going back.

Thanks for the tips! I'll look into it and see what I can do. I would be upset even if I lost a day either side just to get to experience some solid trekking for 2 days
