Pai River Rafting is an activity that attracts tourists from all over the world to experience the thrill of the river in a jungle setting. Originating from the Thanon Thong Chai and Daen Lao mountain ranges, the Pai River flows through a lush forest, making rafting more than just an adventure—it's a journey into the heart of beautiful nature.

This activity is divided into several types to suit different preferences:

• Whitewater Rafting: Ideal for those seeking a challenge and excitement, especially during the rainy season when water levels are high and currents are strong.

• River Tubing: A more relaxing activity, suitable for those who want to float leisurely along the river to soak in the surrounding atmosphere.

The rafting routes vary depending on the tour operator and the water level at different times of the year, but they generally start upstream and end at a designated meeting point, allowing you to fully enjoy the mountain views and riverside life.

• Tourists must book with a tour operator in Pai District.

• Most tour companies will arrange transportation from your accommodation in Pai town to the starting point of the rafting trip.

• After the activity, a vehicle will be waiting to take tourists back to their accommodation.

• Best Time to Go: The rainy season (approximately July-October) is when the river has the most water and is best for whitewater rafting.

• Difficulty Level: During the rainy season, the difficulty level of whitewater rafting is rated at 4-5, which may require skills and experience. Inexperienced participants should inform the tour operator to choose a suitable route.

• What to Wear: You should wear clothes that dry easily and shoes that are secured to your feet. It's recommended to bring sunscreen, a hat, and insect repellent.
