Sunkoshi Rafting, Sunkoshi ” River of gold” is one of the finest rivers available for rafting because it is considered to be one of the 10 classic rivers in the world.
It starts from the bottom of Mt. Sisapangma and Langtang range of Nepal, Tibet border & runs through the Mahabharat Parbat range. Gathering power from tributaries draining some of the highest peaks of the world it emerges on to the northern plains of India where it flows into the Gangas.
From Dolalghat to its end at Chautara it runs for 270 km with grade 3-5 rapids. The experience is only enhanced by the experienc of remote village nestled on the laps of hills; Hindu temples and religious spots along the way make this trip really joyful.
Sleep under the moon's light for 8 nights and make some unforgettable memories with us. Every night is awesome the excitement of sleeping somewhere new!
Our guides are experienced and are familiar with the river. They will provide all you need for a safe and comfortable float.
We raft to Chautara on the final day for two to three hours, where our ride awaits us. Then we're driving back to Kathmandu. Note that there are many ways in which this adventure can be extended.
