Whitewater rafting on the Maetang river in Chiang Mai is something for everyone to try. The river has a rapid grade of 2 - 4 on a scale of 1 - 6. Sounds scary, but it's actually not that bad. You just have to mind the cold water, the hot sun and the unpredictable flow of the river.
Helmets and life jackets should be provided by the tour agency organising this trip, please check that they do! Instructions will be given on land before getting on the river. It's good for one to remember the commands that the captain will give when on the river, as this activity requires team effort to ensure everyone's safety.
Do check with the tour operators as to how long the entire journey would take. It takes 3 hours just to get to the Maetang river from town and the journey downriver takes another 2.5 to 3 hours. Don't be put off by tour operators that charge a little higher than others, as these operators will often provide a safety crew to monitor your journey from the banks of the river(and take photos for a fee). Lunch is also provided.
Wear long-sleeved t-shirt to protect yourself from the sun and sports sandals.

After a couple of days of trekking, you probably are interested in some relaxing. Since we're in the upper north of Thailand, there's no sea nearby.. BUT there are some nice swimmingpools in Chiang Mai. I can recommend you the Sarah Health Club. Open from 10.00 untill 20.00 hours. It's across the British consulate. Outside the center.

White-water rafting was such great fun! Pity we didn't get any photos cause we were rushing to go rafting! Totally no real effort needed just go with the flow! Relax and the river will sail you along! We were having mini water fights with the people from the other rafts and got splashed at pretty badly! :P Leave a Comment Theme: Rafting
