The Pai River itself is one of the main attractions here. Outfitters
organize rafting adventures on some pretty raucous rapids from July to
January. Trekking is also popular, with 2- and 3-day treks to Karen,
Lahu, and Lisu villages. See also Wikipedia
for more info about nature, culture, hilltribes etc. around Pai. The
adventurous can find a local map for self-guided hikes to nearby
waterfalls and caves, but quite a few wayfarers just lounge in town
living simply and enjoying the nightlife.
Many local business
owners are foreigners or bohemian Thais who come here for a better life
than in busy Bangkok or Chiang Mai...
