Trip Overview

There are seven best whitewater adventures in Nepal, and among them, Bhotekoshi River Rafting is one of them. The snow-fed river originating from Tibet is situated 70 km away from Kathmandu. The river has highly steep and almost non-stop flow characteristics. 

Bhotekoshi River Rafting is renowned for its exhilarating level 4+ rapids, making it the most exciting and difficult rafting trip in Nepal. The rafting spot is only 3 hours' drive from Kathmandu. The adventure is full of two days of intensive and strenuous water activities. If you have never rafted before and only have a limited amount of time but want an adrenaline rush, this is the perfect introductory trip package for you as the Bhote Koshi is perhaps Nepal's most exhilarating short rafting trip and the best white water experience on the planet. The moment of the rafting trip has been described as "Like a pinball machine, and you are the ball", "Like being flushed down in an open sewer", "Expedition River", and so on. The Bhotekoshi, which flows swiftly and thunderously in Nepal, has a greater gradient, resulting in a more turbulent flow throughout the year, making it appealing for rafting enthusiasts. 

While you are on your way to the Bhotekoshi River Rafting trip, you will have an opportunity to witness emerald green farms terraced high above the river on steep slopes, as well as curious residents lined up at the suspension bridge watching us as we raft through the cascading waves. At high flow, the rapids are substantial class IV-V, while at lower levels, they are a more typical III.
