New rapids, kayaking site launched in Lampang

The site, Vangviel, was launched by Noppadol Wutthawong, a tourist guide who turned into an entrepreneur.
Noppadol said he used to take tourists to travel on the Vang River and he was impressed by the natural beaut of the river, which is clean and clear so he decided to lease the area in Ban Mae Tia village, Tambon Mae Thod of Thoen district to launch the kayaking service.
He said each kayaking trip would take some four hours and tourists will be trated with the natural beauty along the river, including rocks, pristine water, and 17 rapids. At certain spots, the water is only knee-deep and the beautiful sand below can be seen clearly.
Noppadol added that the rapids on the river has only level-1 difficulty compared to other rapids in other areas of the country which have level-3 and level-4 difficulties.
His tourist site also has water park for kids. The services are opened everyday from 8 am to 6 pm.
