 Rafting
in Nepal is usually a 'wilderness' experience
in that most rivers don't have highways alongside
them - but it's a soft, tamed, wilderness with
white beaches for camping, clean blue rivers,
friendly locals and few 'nasties' - someone described
it as 'blissful escapism'!
Incredibly inexpensive, Nepal is a peaceful democratic
country where rafters and kayakers
get a warm welcome as one of the best forms of
ecotourism.
White water rafting means cruising down a rushing
river in an inflatable rubber raft or white water
kayak over crashing waves and swirling rapids
for the excitement of a lifetime. Nepal has earned
a reputation as one of the best destinations in
the world for white water rafting. Nepal's thundering
waters, coming from the glaciers of the mighty
Himalaya, provide unmatched thrills for rafting
and immersing oneself in the landscape. A rafting
trip is bound to be the highlight of your stay
in the country.
Rivers are graded on a scale of one to six, with
one being a swimming pool and six a one-way ticket
to your maker. Four is considered to be quite
challenging without being exceedingly dangerous
to the novice rafter. Five requires some previous
river experience. Here are some of the popular
rafting trips.
Please select the river
rafting as per your desired.
