Description by the author

This 34 Km-long kayak track is the fourth kayak track of the Tha Jin River descent and part of the Tha Jin River Kayak Route set up by Ayutthaya Kayaking Experience [AKE] aiming to paddle the full stretch of this river from Makham Thao until its confluence with the Gulf of Thailand at Samut Sakhon.

This track brings you from Sam Chuk District to Wang Yang District. The tour will take 6-7 hours according to your level of physical fitness, the conditions of the water current, and your personal kayaking experience. Highlights are listed to give you a number of reference points on this tour itinerary. Do not initiate this tour without the necessary physical fitness and preparation. The start of the track has been set at the Tha Bot Water Regulator, while the arrival is at Mai Ngam Riverside Resort in Wang Yang District. Accommodation is at Mai Ngam Riverside Resort.


Tips and Warnings

General - Stock up supplies of water (500 ml/hr), electrolyte beverages (3-4 bottles) and dry food (take a snack every 2 hours) as there is hardly opportunity to find a meal on this itinerary. Keep up mobile communications with somebody for emergency cases and do know where you are exactly at all times. Protect your equipment with waterproof bags and tie everything to the boat.

Water currents - The most important variable for making kayaking plans is water current. Rainy season will result in flooding and/or rapidly moving water. In this case not every kayak is suitable. Use caution when the current is fast and wear a life jacket.

Clothing - Wear a good hat and loose-fitting clothing that dries quickly. Long pants and shirts with long sleeves may be useful and appropriate to protect you from the sun. The refracted sunlight from the water makes sunburn commonplace, so put on plenty of sun block on not covered parts of your body and wear sunglasses.
