Trishuli river Rafting in Nepal (1/2/3 DAYS)
One day rafting in Trisuli
River
From Pokhara or Kathmandu or
Chitwan to Kurin ghat by Bus and rafting in Trisuli and back to Pokhara or
Kathmandu or Chitwan
Leave Pokhara or Kathmandu
Chitwan early in the morning about 07:00 AM, You will arrive at your raft
put-in-point KURIN GHAT after 3.5 hours drive. Upon arrival, you will be met by
our river guide. He will brief you about paddling techniques and safety in the
river system. After your briefing, load unto the rafts and paddle! Rafting on
the Trisuli is a full body activity, with much more than mere paddling. You
learn how to throw your body weight around the raft in desperate, yet effective
attempts to swing the raft around rapids and through the hydraulics. The total
raft time shall be about 3 hours till you reach your put-out-point. During your
adventure, you will encounter many small and big rapids.
Once you arrive at your
put-out-point. Your pick-up bus will take you to Pokhara or Chitwan or
Kathmandu. Arrive at Pokhara or Chitwan or Kathmandu around late evening.
Duration: 01 Nights / 02 Days
Day 01:
We leave Kathmandu or
Pokhara around 07:00 Hours and drive approximately 3 hrs. to Charaundi, our
put-in point. After the crew assembles the raft, they will explain the safety
equipment and proper procedures. During the day, we run a numbers of rapids,
that rate to 2 to 3 . All the rapids have been given Nepali and English names:
our guide can relate the story behind each one. We lunch on a beach remarkable
for its unique sculptured boulders. Shortly after lunch we enter the Trishuli
gorge. As the canyon narrows the walls becomes steep, densely, forested, the
current accelerates and the rapids increase in the size and frequency. This is
the time to hang on. After such a stimulating experience, it is humbling to see
a Majhi (Fisherman) building his precarious traps in such turbulence. Our last
rapid, Jholungepul, is named for an extensive suspension bridge. Here we often
encounter an enthusiastic audience, they line the bridge excited to see us pass
beneath. The geologic formation are tremendously interesting and not worthy. We
camp at Kurintar on a sandy beach on the Trishuli beach. Every one is welcome
to help our crew with camp chores. Once the tents are pitched a savoury dinner
will be prepare over stoves.
Day 02:
Our second day has a
leisurely pace. After we continue down the Trishuli stopping to suit our
interests. We spend the whole day within its forested canyon- one of the many
in the Mahabharat range. We eat lunch beside the river and have time to
explore, birdwatch, photograph and learn about the local people. The area is
inhabited by Magars and Gurung farmers, noted for noted for their friendliness
and charm and we have an opportunity for visiting a Vieira and we end our River
trip and drive back to Kathmandu/Pokhara/Chitwan.
