Rafting In Nepal
A breathtaking adventure and/or an amazing
nature experience
What is rafting?
Rafting is a journey on a river in an inflatable
rubber boat. Equipped with a paddle, life west
and a helmet you can travel long distances. You
have to paddle with great effort through rapid
streams as well as slowly gliding on the river
enjoying the nature.
Explore the nature and fishing
The trip can be more than a journey on the
river. It will give you the opportunity to study
the complex and unique eco-systems around the
mountain rivers. You can also try the
traditional fishing methods used by the local
people for centuries.
Seasons
The rivers are very challenging from September
to November and from February to April when the
snow from the Himalayas are melting.
Arrangement
A professional river guide heads the rafting
team drifting easily or padeling away in a
frenzy whooping and screaming with waves
crashing in.
All camping equipment and meals are provided and
most of the time the camp will already be ready
when you reach the campsite and a cup of hot tea
or coffee is waiting for you. |
