Nepal is whitewater haven, offering a
dizzying choice of the worlds most exciting
rivers. On rivers such as Sun Kosi, Trisuli
and Kaligandaki, rafters drift lazily
through lush tropical gorges, or
roller-coaster through stretches of
whitewater in the capable hands of
experienced guides. On overnight trips,
guests camp on sandy river banks, from where
they can explore side canyons and nearby
villages. |

sacred "Fish Tail" or Machhapuchhre. Upon

leader will give a full safety briefing. The
first rapids we run are REFUND and THE EVIL ONE.
Soon after the confluence with the Modi Khola
River, we will choose our beach campsite.
|
|
Day 02 : |
After breakfast, once the rafts are packed we
start down the river for a full day of white
water, during which you will see magnificent
views of Annapurna-I and Himalchuli. Along this
part of the river vines and lush vegetation hang
from the cliff faces through which small
waterfalls run. With our safety kayakers in
position, you negotiate numerous exciting rapids
before a welcome lunch break. Our campsite that
evening will be in Sendi Beach.
|
|
Day 03 : |
After breakfast, soon after getting on the
water, we arrive at the holy village & Seti Beni.
Here the river has deposited a house-sized
boulder at the confluence with a smaller
tributary. Since confluences are considered holy
places in the Hindu religion, this boulder has
become an important shrine to the local river
people. A clean run through Seti Beni rapid puts
us into "JUNGLE CORRIDOR". The river narrows
through this remote gorge providing many
thrilling drops and turns to challenge the
rafting crews. In the afternoon "TOMBSTONE"
rapid looms on the horizon. We will choose our
campsite.
|
|
Day 04 : |
After breakfast, through this middle section of
the Kali Gandaki, the river loses its gradient
the rapids are replaced by long coin pools and
some small riffles. This provides a nice
relaxing day where you can lounge in the raft
and enjoy the scenery, and then an easy float
down to our beach campsite follows a quick
supply stop at Ridi Bazaar at approximately
midday.
|
|
Day 05 : |
Last day we run the largest rapid on the river
"A WALK IN THE DARK". A large landslide fell
into the river, creating this roller coaster
rapid. Many other smaller drops are negotiated
before arriving at the Ramdi Ghat road-bridge
and our take-out point. After lunch equipment is
loaded into the bus. We, then, begin a scenic
drive back to Pokhara or Kathmandu.
