PADDLE INFLATABLE KAYAKS (IK) DOWN NORTHERN THAILAND’S BEST WHITEWATER WITH PROFESSIONAL INSTRUCTORS
During March, April and May 8Adventure’s use IKs for the main class IV section, the most exciting white water in northern Thailand. The kayaks are set up with one or two guests in front and a guide in the back. During the rest of the year the water is too challenging and we only offer inflatable kayaking on our class II-III sections. Check out our Facebook page for examples of past trips and what current trips look like. https://www.facebook.com/8Adventures.
10 km Inflatable Kayaking has it all. Its broken into 3 sections. The first section is a great warm-up where you learn skills practicing with the guides and getting used to the kayak. This section has one class III and is probably the most beautiful section of the river with the encroaching jungle offering lots of shade. The second section is action-packed with rapids and is probably the best whitewater in Thailand. Most of this section is class III and IV rapids. The Third section lets up in the beginning giving you some time to relax before entering a great class III rapid leading into a short continuous section of rapids that goes almost all the way to the take out where our camp is. We have top-of-the-line equipment professionally trained guides to make sure you have a safe adventure. We have towels for you when you finish and shower facilities that you can use before heading home. Make sure to bring a 2nd set of dry clothes so you can ride home dry.
