Rafting and Kayaking
Nepal; one of the best places in the world for rafting and kayaking, its mountain scenery has drawn trekkers as well as climbers for many years; these same mountains shape an incredible variety of whitewater challenges for paddlers.

A series of worlds most outstanding river journeys are found here, raging from steep, adrenaline-charged mountain streams to classic big volume wilderness expeditions. The combination of spectacular rivers, mountain scenery and rich cultural heritage makes Nepal an obvious river-runner's destination.

No other country has such a choice of trips on wild rivers with warm water, a subtropical climate and huge beaches with white sand that are ideal for camping. The opportunity for kayak expeditions are exceptional.

Before you decide what river you will do, you need to decide what it is you want out of your river trip. Nepal offer trips available from one day to twelve days on different rivers, all offering dramatically different experience and first off, don't believe that just because it's river it's going to be wet and wild. Some rivers, such as the Sun Koshi, which is an incredible full-on white water trip in September and October, are basically flat and uneventful in the low water of early spring.
