Trishuli
River: The
classic river (1 to 3 days) |
 For
first time paddlers, a trip down the Trishuli is an experience
not to be missed (class 3 to 4+ in high water).While you learn
to handle the river’s well spaced, straightforward rapids,
a panorama of stunning gorges drifts quietly past. During
the monsoon, the river promises a more challenging ride, with
powerful rapids and whirlpools. This trip can easily be combined
with a visit to Chitwan National Park or Pokhara. |
Bhote
Koshi River: The
harmony of Tibet and the Himalayas (2 days) |
 The
Bhote Koshi is one of the best white water adventure in Nepal
(class 4 to 5). Your journey to the startingpoint takes you
through the mountains, past a vista of traditional Tibetan
life. Once you’re on the river though, there is no time
to stop and admire the scenery, as you and your fellow rafters
negotiate some of the fastest and steepest rapids in Nepal.
This true adventure can be rafted between October and December
and February and April. |
Kali
Gandaki River: River
of God (3 days) |
|  Named
after the much-revered Goddess Kali and descending from the
deepest gorge in Asia, this fabulous river (class 3 to 4+)
offers a mixture of astounding mountain views and pure adrenaline
with a full immersion into the wilderness.
Along the way you will encounter culture at its simplest.
If you’re lucky, traditional Magar and Chetri villagers
will venture down to the riverbank to witness your journey
through the remote mountain wilderness of Nepal.
