Two foreign tourists suffered serious injuries after plunging onto rocks during an unauthorised 150-metre cliff descent in Phetchabun. Now, the organisers face possible legal action. Natural Resources and Environment Minister Suchart Chomklin confirmed they lacked permission from the Royal Forest Department. The man and woman fell near the bottom of Tad Mok Waterfall, triggering a six-hour rescue operation. Meanwhile, district officials have halted cliff rappelling pending sweeping safety inspections. The organiser denies evading responsibility, insisting its equipment was checked and participants were experienced. However, investigators are examining the circumstances of the fall, while environmental groups demand a full inquiry. The accident has raised serious questions about adventure tourism safety, operating permissions and emergency preparedness.

Cliff rappelling activities have been halted in Phetchabun after two foreign tourists suffered serious injuries during an unauthorised adventure excursion. Natural Resources and Environment Minister Suchart Chomklin confirmed Tuesday that the organiser lacked permission from the Royal Forest Department.

The tourists, a man and a woman, fell onto rocks during a 150-metre cliff descent at Tad Mok Waterfall. Both required emergency rescue and hospital treatment. Meanwhile, the organisers now face possible legal action. District officials have suspended further activities pending extensive safety inspections. The accident has also triggered demands for tighter regulation of Thailand’s adventure tourism industry.

The accident occurred on Saturday, October 10, at Tad Mok Waterfall, also known as Nam Nao Canyon. The site is located in Khok Mon subdistrict, Nam Nao district, Phetchabun province.

Suchart confirms unauthorised Phetchabun cliff descent as forestry officials prepare legal proceedings

Both foreign tourists were seriously injured after falling onto a rocky ledge near the bottom of the ravine. Their rescue took nearly six hours, with emergency personnel working to recover them from the steep terrain.

However, the fallout has moved beyond the injuries and the lengthy rescue operation. On Tuesday, October 13, Minister Suchart Chomklin confirmed that the excursion had taken place without official authorisation.

The minister received the findings from Forestry Department Director-General Nikorn Sirirojananont. The report established that the organiser had failed to obtain permission from the Royal Forest Department.

The waterfall lies within an area being prepared as the Dong Archosaur Footprints Recreational Forest. Consequently, organisers required official approval before conducting adventure activities at the site. No such permission had been granted. Suchart ordered forestry officials to gather evidence and coordinate with Nam Nao district officials over the incident.

Furthermore, the minister instructed officials to pursue the matter under applicable laws and regulations. Forestry personnel have already summoned individuals connected with the excursion for questioning. The department is now preparing a legal complaint against those responsible for organising the activity. However, no completed prosecution or conviction has been reported.

Nam Nao officials halt cliff rappelling and order fresh safety checks before approving further trips

Suchart also addressed the safety requirements governing adventure activities involving specialist equipment. He stressed that organisers must comply with legal requirements and conduct proper risk assessments. Emergency procedures and suitable equipment must also form part of the arrangements. His intervention followed mounting criticism of the excursion and the circumstances surrounding the accident.

In response, Nam Nao district officials moved to halt cliff rappelling activities in the affected area. Acting district chief Thaweesak Khambanjong convened a meeting of government departments on Monday, October 12.

The meeting took place in the second-floor conference room at the Nam Nao District Office. Officials reviewed the accident and examined existing arrangements governing high-risk adventure tourism.

The meeting unanimously agreed that forestry officials should consider cancelling previously submitted applications for rappelling activities. This would allow fresh inspections before further permissions were granted. Specifically, officials want to examine locations, ropes, equipment, rescue arrangements and emergency procedures. They also agreed that future excursions should be restricted to designated and approved locations.

Activities outside those areas would be prohibited without the necessary authorisation. Moreover, the district intends to introduce closer supervision of approved excursions. Operators must submit applications through Forest Protection Unit PCh.5 in Nam Nao. The unit will then forward applications to the central Forestry Department for consideration.

New permit rules demand emergency plans and medical checks as organiser recounts the 150-metre descent

As part of the new arrangements, organisers must provide detailed safety and emergency response plans. A district-level working group will examine the documents before any approval is granted.

Officials will also inspect conditions on the day of each authorised excursion. These checks will cover weather, environmental hazards, equipment and the preparedness of participating teams.

In addition, tourists will undergo health and medical assessments before taking part. The district is also reviewing emergency communications, rescue teams and hospital transfer arrangements. Notably, the accident required a prolonged operation to recover two injured tourists from the ravine. That rescue is now part of the district’s examination of emergency preparedness.

According to the excursion organiser, six visitors joined the activity at Tad Mok Waterfall on October 10. Four participated in the descent down the approximately 150-metre cliff. They descended in pairs, using two separate ropes. The organiser maintained that all four had previous rappelling experience and that equipment had been inspected beforehand.

Initially, the first pair completed the descent without incident. The second pair then began their descent along the same cliff. However, trouble struck after they had descended approximately 130 metres. According to the organiser, they stopped on a relatively flat ledge to adjust their equipment.

Foreign tourists fall onto rocks near ravine floor as rescuers battle for six hours to bring them out

The pause came shortly before the final section of the descent. Both tourists subsequently lost their footing and fell heavily onto rocks below. The impact occurred on a rocky ledge approximately 10 metres above the bottom of the ravine. The pair were left injured in difficult terrain, requiring emergency assistance.

The male tourist suffered injuries to his right arm and leg, with suspected fractures. Rescue workers also reported severe pain around his hips and back. Meanwhile, the female tourist complained of pain affecting her chest, back, legs and hips. Both required medical treatment following the fall.

The organiser descended to reach the injured pair before requesting assistance from rescue services. Emergency personnel began operations at approximately 1.30 pm. However, the steep terrain complicated efforts to bring the casualties back to safety. Rescue workers spent hours recovering the injured tourists from the ravine.

Eventually, both were brought to the upper area at approximately 7 pm. The operation had taken nearly six hours. The casualties were initially transported to Nam Nao Hospital for treatment. Subsequently, medical arrangements involved two hospitals approximately 70 kilometres apart.

The organiser later reported that one tourist was no longer considered critical. The other remained under medical treatment. Nevertheless, neither tourist has been publicly identified, and their nationalities have not been disclosed. Both have been described as foreign visitors.

Organiser denies evading responsibility as investigators examine equipment and missing permit

Their final medical diagnoses have also not been released. Separately, investigators have not established whether equipment failure contributed to the accident. Reports have not conclusively explained whether the tourists remained attached to safety ropes when they fell. The precise circumstances surrounding their loss of footing remain under examination.

The organiser subsequently identified itself through the Facebook page NPS Bang Ruea Hak, known in Thai as นปส.บางเรือหัก. It rejected accusations that it had attempted to avoid responsibility following the accident. Instead, the group maintained that rescuing the tourists and arranging hospital treatment had been its immediate priorities.

It also insisted that the participants had previous experience and that equipment had been checked before the descent. The organiser pledged full cooperation with police and government officials. Nevertheless, forestry investigators established that the activity had taken place without the required permission. Officials have summoned those involved for questioning and are preparing a formal legal complaint.

On another front, a separate adventure tourism organisation became caught up in the controversy. Siamese Explorers faced criticism after being publicly linked to the excursion. However, the group issued a statement denying any involvement in the accident. Its denial came as questions mounted over who organised the activity and whether it had been authorised.

Tourism figures and environmental groups demand an inquiry into safety standards after the cliff fall

The accident also drew criticism from people involved in developing tourism in Nam Nao. Wantani Lo-trakool, who has spent nearly a decade developing tourism in Khok Mon, called for a transparent investigation. Writing on Facebook, she warned that the accident could undermine confidence in the district’s tourism industry.

Separately, environmental volunteer organisations demanded a wider examination of adventure tourism safety standards. On Monday, October 12, representatives from Nam Nao and Khao Kho submitted a petition to Phetchabun Governor Saranyu Meethongkham. The delegation called for an independent fact-finding investigation into the accident.

The representatives included Thawat Chumhin, chairman of the Nam Nao district Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Volunteers network. Thawat also serves as an adviser to MP Yuparat Bua-in. He was joined by Thanadon Limcharoen, chairman of the equivalent environmental volunteer network in Khao Kho district.

In particular, the delegation demanded scrutiny of the organiser’s qualifications, operating permissions, equipment and emergency response arrangements. The representatives also called for clearer minimum safety standards governing high-risk adventure tourism. Additionally, they sought closer coordination between government departments, tourism operators and local communities.

Volunteer networks seek stronger rescue rules while officials examine licensing and the cause of the fall

The networks had already issued a statement on Sunday, October 11, proposing five areas of reform. Their proposals included stronger risk assessments, improved emergency communications and additional warning signs. They also sought clearer rescue arrangements and responsible tourism management.

The representatives maintained that they were not attempting to obstruct tourism development. Rather, they wanted improved safety arrangements while protecting the local economy and environment. Their petition followed criticism of the excursion and the discovery that it had taken place without permission.

Meanwhile, provincial officials face growing demands for an explanation of the accident and the circumstances surrounding the excursion. The organiser’s commercial licensing status has not been established in the available reports. Investigators have also not announced a definitive cause of the fall. There has been no confirmed finding that equipment failure or defective safety procedures caused the tourists’ injuries.

The Forestry Department is examining the unauthorised activity and preparing possible legal proceedings against those responsible. At the same time, Nam Nao district officials are reviewing permissions and safety requirements for future rappelling excursions. The district’s measures include restricting activities to approved locations and requiring applications through the central Forestry Department.

District maintains cliff rappelling restrictions as legal action looms over unauthorised tourist descent

Further inspections will cover ropes, equipment, emergency plans and the preparedness of activity teams. Officials will also assess weather conditions and participants’ health before approved excursions begin. Rescue arrangements are receiving particular attention following the prolonged recovery operation at Tad Mok Waterfall.

Despite the district’s intervention, no nationwide prohibition on rappelling or other adventure sports has been announced. The restrictions currently concern activities in Nam Nao district requiring Forestry Department permission. The proposed arrangements would also require organisers to demonstrate that rescue and medical transfer procedures are in place.

There is also a discrepancy in published accounts concerning the accident date. Most reports, including the district’s account, identify Saturday, October 10. However, one ministerial report carried by Thai PBS referred to October 11. The district’s account remains consistent with the organiser’s reported chronology.

As of Tuesday evening, October 13, the tourists’ identities and nationalities remained undisclosed. Their final medical diagnoses had also not been released. Meanwhile, forestry officials continued preparing possible legal action against those responsible for the excursion.

Unauthorised 150-metre cliff descent leaves two foreign tourists injured as organisers face possible legal action

The investigation has established that the 150-metre cliff descent was conducted without the required Forestry Department authorisation. Two foreign tourists were seriously injured, and emergency crews spent nearly six hours recovering them.

The organisers now face possible legal action, while further rappelling activities remain subject to district restrictions.

For now, cliff rappelling in the affected area has been halted pending official safety reviews. Future excursions will require approved locations, detailed emergency plans and inspections before activities begin. The Forestry Department’s legal investigation continues alongside the district’s review of adventure tourism safety arrangements.

在两名外国游客参加未经授权的探险活动时受重伤后，碧差汶府的悬崖速降活动已被暂停。自然资源与环境部长素查·宗克林周二证实，组织者并未获得皇家森林部门的许可。

两名游客，一男一女，在塔莫克瀑布（Tad Mok Waterfall）进行150米悬崖速降时坠落岩石。两人均需紧急救援并送医治疗。与此同时，活动组织者可能面临法律诉讼。地区官员已暂停所有活动，等待进行全面的安全检查。此次事故也引发了人们对加强泰国探险旅游业监管的呼声。

事故发生在10月10日星期六，地点位于塔莫瀑布（Tad Mok Waterfall），又名南瑙峡谷（Nam Nao Canyon）。该地点位于碧差汶府南瑙县科蒙街道。

苏查特证实有人未经授权从碧差汶悬崖下降，林业官员正准备提起法律诉讼。

两名外国游客坠落到峡谷底部附近的一处岩石峭壁上，身受重伤。救援人员花了近六个小时才将他们从陡峭的地形中救出。

然而，此次事件的影响远不止于人员伤亡和漫长的救援行动。10月13日星期二，部长苏查特·乔姆克林证实，此次远足活动未经官方授权。

部长收到了林业部部长尼科恩·西里罗贾南特提交的调查结果。报告证实，组织者未能获得皇家林业部的许可。

该瀑布位于正在筹建的东族主龙足迹休闲森林区域内。因此，组织者需要获得官方批准才能在该地点开展探险活动。但此次并未获得此类许可。苏查特已责令林业官员收集证据，并与南瑙县官员就此事进行协调。

此外，部长指示官员们依据相关法律法规对此事进行调查。林业部门人员已传唤与此次郊游活动相关的人员进行问询。该部门目前正在准备对活动组织者提起诉讼。然而，目前尚未有任何起诉或定罪的报道。

南瑙县官员暂停悬崖速降活动，并下令进行新的安全检查，之后才会批准进一步的活动。

苏查特还谈到了涉及专业设备的探险活动的安全要求。他强调，组织者必须遵守法律规定并进行适当的风险评估。应急预案和合适的设备也必须纳入安排之中。此前，此次探险活动及其事故情况受到了越来越多的批评，苏查特的讲话正是对此的回应。

对此，南瑙县官员立即叫停了受影响地区的悬崖速降活动。代理县长塔维萨克·坎班琼于10月12日（星期一）召集各政府部门开会。

会议在南瑙区政府二楼会议室举行。官员们回顾了事故经过，并审查了现有的高风险探险旅游管理规定。

会议一致同意，林业官员应考虑取消之前提交的绳索下降活动申请。这样可以在再次批准之前进行重新检查。具体而言，官员们希望检查场地、绳索、设备、救援安排和应急程序。他们还一致认为，未来的绳索下降活动应仅限于指定和批准的地点。

未经授权，禁止在上述区域外进行任何活动。此外，该地区计划加强对已批准的游览活动的监管。活动组织者必须通过南瑙县第五森林保护单位提交申请。该单位会将申请转交中央林业部门审核。

组织者讲述了150米下降过程中遇到的新许可证规定要求制定应急计划和进行体检。

根据新安排，组织者必须提供详细的安全和应急响应计划。区级工作组将审核这些文件，审核通过后方可批准。

官员们还将在每次获准远征当日检查相关情况。这些检查将涵盖天气、环境风险、设备以及参赛队伍的准备情况。

此外，游客在参加活动前需接受健康和医疗评估。该地区还在审查应急通讯、救援队伍和医院转运安排。值得注意的是，此次事故导致两名受伤游客被困峡谷，救援行动耗时较长。此次救援行动目前已纳入该地区应急准备工作的考量范围。

据活动组织者称，10月10日，共有六名游客参加了在塔莫克瀑布举行的活动。其中四人参与了从约150米高的悬崖上速降的挑战。他们两人一组，使用两根独立的绳索。组织者表示，这四人均有速降经验，且所有装备均已事先检查过。

最初，第一组队员顺利完成了下降。随后，第二组队员也沿着同一处悬崖开始下降。然而，在下降约130米后，他们遇到了麻烦。据组织者称，他们在一个相对平坦的岩架上停下来调整装备。

外国游客坠落到峡谷底部附近的岩石上，救援人员奋战六个小时才将他们救出。

就在下山最后一段路程即将结束时，两人停了下来。随后，他们双双失足，重重地摔在下方的岩石上。撞击点位于峡谷底部上方约10米的岩石平台上。两人身处险峻地形，受伤严重，需要紧急救援。

这名男性游客右臂和右腿受伤，疑似骨折。救援人员还报告说，他的臀部和背部剧烈疼痛。与此同时，这名女性游客抱怨胸部、背部、腿部和臀部疼痛。两人坠落后均接受了治疗。

组织者先下到受伤的两人身边，然后才请求救援。救援人员于下午1点30分左右开始行动。然而，陡峭的地形使救援工作变得异常艰难。救援人员花费数小时才将受伤的游客从峡谷中救出。

最终，两人于晚上7点左右被送至高处。整个救援行动持续了近6个小时。伤者最初被送往南瑙医院接受治疗。随后，医疗转运工作由两家相距约70公里的医院共同完成。

组织方随后报告称，其中一名游客已脱离生命危险，另一名游客仍在接受治疗。然而，这两名游客的身份和国籍均未公开，仅被描述为外国游客。

组织者否认逃避责任，调查人员正在检查设备并寻找丢失的许可证。

他们的最终医疗诊断结果尚未公布。此外，调查人员尚未确定设备故障是否是造成事故的原因之一。报告也未能最终说明游客坠落后是否仍系着安全绳。他们失足坠落的具体情况仍在调查中。

组织者随后通过名为“NPS Bang Ruea Hak”（泰语：NPS Bang Ruea Hak）的Facebook页面表明了自己的身份。该组织否认了事故发生后试图逃避责任的指控，并坚称营救游客和安排医院治疗是其首要任务。

组织方坚称参与者均有相关经验，且所有装备在下山前均已检查。组织者承诺将全力配合警方和政府官员的工作。然而，林业调查人员认定此次活动未经许可。目前，相关人员已被传唤问话，并正在准备正式的法律诉讼。

另一方面，另一家探险旅游机构也卷入了这场争议。暹罗探险家（Siamese Explorers）在被公开与此次探险活动联系起来后，遭到了批评。然而，该机构发表声明否认与事故有任何关联。与此同时，关于此次活动的组织者是谁以及是否获得授权的疑问也越来越多。

悬崖坠落后，旅游业人士和环保组织要求对安全标准进行调查。

此次事故也招致了南瑙地区旅游业从业人员的批评。在科蒙地区从事旅游业近十年的万塔尼·洛特拉库尔呼吁进行透明的调查。她在脸书上发文警告说，此次事故可能会动摇人们对该地区旅游业的信心。

此外，环保志愿者组织要求对探险旅游安全标准进行更广泛的审查。10月12日星期一，来自南瑙和考科的代表向碧差汶府府尹萨兰尤·米通坎递交了请愿书。代表团呼吁对这起事故进行独立的调查取证。

代表包括南瑙县自然资源与环境保护志愿者网络主席塔瓦·楚姆欣（Thawat Chumhin）。塔瓦同时也是国会议员尤帕拉·布阿因（Yuparat Bua-in）的顾问。与他一同出席的还有考科县同类环保志愿者网络主席塔纳顿·林查伦（Thanadon Limcharoen）。

代表团特别要求审查组织者的资质、运营许可、设备和应急响应安排。代表们还呼吁制定更明确的高风险探险旅游最低安全标准。此外，他们还寻求政府部门、旅游经营者和当地社区之间更紧密的协调。

志愿者组织呼吁制定更严格的救援规则，同时官方正在调查事故许可证发放情况以及事故原因。

这些旅游网络已于10月11日（周日）发表声明，提出五项改革建议。他们的建议包括加强风险评估、改进应急通讯、增设预警标志。他们还呼吁建立更清晰的救援机制和负责任的旅游管理体系。

这些代表坚称，他们并非意图阻碍旅游业发展。相反，他们希望在保护当地经济和环境的同时，改善安全措施。此前，有人批评了这次旅行，并发现该旅行未经许可。

与此同时，省政府官员面临着越来越大的压力，要求对事故原因和此次旅行的相关情况作出解释。现有报告尚未确认组织者的商业许可证状态。调查人员也尚未公布坠落的确切原因。目前尚无确凿证据表明设备故障或安全措施缺陷导致了游客的受伤。

林业部门正在调查这起未经授权的活动，并准备对相关责任人提起可能的法律诉讼。与此同时，南瑙县官员正在审查未来绳降活动的许可和安全要求。该县的措施包括将活动限制在已批准的地点，并要求通过中央林业部门提交申请。

由于未经授权的游客下降行为可能面临法律诉讼，该地区仍维持对悬崖速降的限制。

后续检查将涵盖绳索、设备、应急预案以及活动团队的准备情况。官员们还将在批准的远足活动开始前评估天气状况和参与者的健康状况。鉴于塔德莫克瀑布救援行动持续时间较长，救援安排正受到特别关注。

尽管该地区已介入，但尚未宣布在全国范围内禁止绳索速降或其他探险运动。目前，限制措施仅限于南瑙县境内需要获得林业部门许可的活动。拟议的安排还将要求组织者证明已制定救援和医疗转运程序。

关于事故发生日期，已公布的说法也存在出入。大多数报道，包括区政府的说法，都指出事故发生在10月10日星期六。然而，泰国公共电视台（Thai PBS）刊登的一份部级报告却提到了10月11日。区政府的说法与组织者公布的时间顺序一致。

截至10月13日星期二晚间，这些游客的身份和国籍仍未公开，最终的医疗诊断结果也尚未公布。与此同时，林业官员仍在准备对此次旅行的责任人采取可能的法律行动。

未经许可的150米悬崖速降活动导致两名外国游客受伤，组织者可能面临法律诉讼。

调查证实，此次150米悬崖攀爬活动并未获得林业部门的必要许可。两名外国游客受重伤，救援人员花费近六个小时才将他们救出。

组织者现在可能面临法律诉讼，而进一步的绳索速降活动仍受到该地区的限制。

目前，受影响区域的悬崖速降活动已暂停，等待官方安全审查。未来的探险活动需要经过审批，制定详细的应急预案，并在活动开始前接受检查。林业部门的法律调查仍在进行中，同时该地区也在审查探险旅游的安全安排。
