| Long
Trips with River fact sheet: |
|  Our
longer trips take you into some of Nepal’s
most remote areas. Often they begin with
short treks to the river. On these treks
we employ local porters to carry our gear
and supplies, so all you need to carry are
your own personal belongings.
Many of our long trips
finish close to some of our less easily
accessible National Parks and Wildlife Reserves
(the Karnali trip actually finishes in the
Bardia National Park). So you may wish to
combine your rafting trip with a safari
adventure and go in search of our native
tigers, bears and rhinos! |

| Arun River: Trekker's
Delight (9 days) |
| This trip
begins with 3 day trek through remote villages
of Arun valley. Camping out in lush forests
with views of the snowcapped Himalayan peaks.
On the river, the powerful current drives
your raft or kayak through 4 days of great
white water action; at night you relax on
fantastic beaches in dramatic valleys of
Arun. In our opinion, the combination of
trekking, spectacular scenery, great rapids
and remote location make the Arun itself
best river running.

koshi River: The river of gold
(7 to 9 days)
 The
Sun Koshi River (class 4 to 5) is famous
in rafting circles, and with good reason.
This is one of the10 most exciting white
water rafting in the world, roaring past
remote villages and green fertile mountains
covered with forests and rice terraces,
where local inhabitants can be seen in their
daily rural activities. This is a once-in-a-lifetime
experience… particularly during high
waters, when the rapids can swell to massive
sizes, sometimes making the rafts completely
disappear from sight!
