7 extreme sports in Chiang Mai

Feel like getting your adrenal glands pumping? Well Chiang Mai, while being no Queensland, still has a great range of thrilling activities for you to dive into.

Bungee Jump Anyone?

The more you think about it the harder it’s going to be…so just close your eyes and go for it. People have even done it naked, but beware of any prying police eyes.

Shoot Some Guns

Okay, so BB guns are not seen as that ‘extreme’ but the ones in Chiang Mai pack quite a punch. Some call the sport airsoft, but whatever you want to call it just make sure to pad up, put on that mask and prepare to defeat your rival.
