Enduro Riders Caught in Flash Flood in Rayong

On September 22, 2026, a group of enduro motorcyclists experienced a harrowing encounter with a flash flood in the Khao Noi sub-district of Khao Chamao, Rayong. According to a report by Khaosod Online, the incident occurred during a recreational riding trip when heavy rainfall triggered a rapid surge of murky, brown water through the forest area.

Footage shared by a participant, identified as Facebook user “Piangkaew Nalinrat,” captured the moment the group attempted to navigate the rising waters. During the crossing, one rider’s motorcycle became submerged as the front end dipped into a deep section of the stream. The rider was able to recover the vehicle with the assistance of fellow group members who were nearby to guide them. No injuries were reported, and the group successfully managed to exit the area.

For travelers and residents, this incident serves as a stark reminder of the unpredictable nature of forest streams during the rainy season. Flash floods can develop with little warning, turning recreational activities into emergency situations. While the group involved was experienced, the event highlights the risks associated with off-road travel in mountainous or forested regions during periods of heavy precipitation. It remains to be confirmed if local authorities will issue specific warnings for off-road enthusiasts in the Khao Chamao area following this incident.
