About this trip

Trip overview

Rafting is one of the most exciting adventure activities visitors enjoy in Nepal. The country’s rivers originate from the high Himalayas, formed by melting snow and glaciers, creating powerful currents and spectacular white-water conditions that make Nepal one of the best rafting destinations in the world.

Among the many rafting rivers, the Trishuli River is one of the most popular choices for a two-day rafting adventure. Easily accessible to & from Kathmandu, Pokhara and Chitwan. The Trishuli River offers an ideal combination of thrilling rapids and beautiful natural scenery. During the rafting trip, visitors paddle through exciting Class II–III rapids while enjoying views of lush green hills, riverside villages, and sandy river beaches.

The journey down the river includes fun wave trains and bouncy rapids that create plenty of splashes and excitement, making it perfect for friends, families, and adventure seekers. Between rapids, there are calm sections where rafters can relax, take in the scenic surroundings, and even enjoy a refreshing swim in the river.

A Trishuli River rafting trip provides the perfect opportunity to experience Nepal’s famous white-water adventure within a short time, combining adrenaline, natural beauty, and unforgettable fun on the river.
