Rafting down the Phato Canal through the forest in Amphoe Phato is a highly recommended soft adventure activity. The canal is the source of many streams winding down the mountains.

The upstream forest of Phato Canal is abundant, and it is a natural habitat for rare wildlife, such as dusky leaf monkeys and hornbills. They can freely look for food in the forests along the banks of the canal. Located at the banks of some sections of the canal are durian orchards, mangosteen orchards, palm plantations and rubber plantations.
