River Kayaking through lush overgrown waterways of the Northern Ping River while enjoying the superb mountain and jungle landscape of Chiang Dao, Chiang Mai provinces. When the cool or hot dry season begins, the receding water level will make the right conditions for a journey deep into the verdant jungle and navigate through the lush greenery and dense growth of trees along the waterways of the Ping River, just north of Chiang Mai. The shady bamboo jungle and temperate forests offer relaxing and wonderful scenery along the winding creek-like river. While kayaking, enjoy the undisturbed environment of the Ping River which is home to various kinds of birds and river fish. In the dry season, this jungle is the best choice for a safe entrance.

Kayaking in Chiang Mai

3.00We were a family of 6 people. We are not used to as much shouting and yelling as we experienced on the trip. Otherwise, the trip down the river was a great experience.
