| Description
The warm and beautiful Seti River
passes through stunning jungle scenery,
green hills and valleys. It is an
excellent river for bird-watchers
and those interested in the abundance
of nature found on this trip.
This normally gentle river has plenty
of small and straightforward rapids.
During the monsoon months the intensity
of the rapids increases and attracts
a radically different set of rafters.
The Seti is an ideal trip for those
wanting to experience some of the
stunning river scenery in Nepal without
the intensity of complex or challenging
rapids. It is also very well suited
to family trips and best river to
learn kayaking in Nepal.
