River Rafting
The Himalayas has drawn trekkers and climbers in Nepal for many years, but these same mountains also feed some of the world's most challenging and beautiful rivers. Very few countries offer the combination of spectacular rivers, mountain scenery, a subtropical climate, and huge white-sand beaches that are idle for
camping.
The best time frames to experience rafting in Nepal are; September to early December, and March to June. Winter is too cold to raft, and during the summer time the rivers are too wild for rafters who are not professionals.
The Trisuli River
Trisuli lies at the West of Kathmandu, on the road to Pokhara. This is quite a popular river for rafting trips. This is also an ideal river for the beginners. A one-day Trisuli rafting could be incorporated on the trip to Pokhara or Chitwan. For those who want to spend more time on the river, this program could be extended to two or three days.
The Seti River
The snow white Seti river flows right through Pokhara, while running completely underground in some places dropping to 50 meter below ground level. This river draws a good number of
Kayakers and rafters not only with its exiting rapids, but also the breathtaking view of the mountains and the impressive gorges it passes through. One might choose between a two days trip and a three days trip. This river is idle for professional rafters and first time rafters alike.
The Kali Gandaki River
Kali Gandaki rafting is a combined experience of mountain viewing, culture observing, and rapid riding.
This river flow from the mountains and passes by Pokhara, ending at Butwal. This river is accessible from Pokhara. This is a three days (only) rafting trip, and is suitable for both the experienced and beginner rafters.
