Description about Bhotekoshi:
The Bhote Kosi is known as the River from Tibet and you can
start a trip after a peak over the border into Tibet. The
Kathmandu / Lhasa Highway (AKA Friendship Highway, Arniko
Highway) runs along beside the river. You can run a day trip
or do a two-day expedition and run parts of the river twice.
It's a great beginner river for rafters and fun for kayakers
at all levels.
Bhote
Koshi is the beautiful for adventure trip with very steep
and basically non-stop mountain river only 3 hours drives
from Kathmandu offering tow days of intense and challenging
river activity. You are beginning to understand what this
great trip in Nepal offers you nothing less than the ride
of a lifetime. If you have never rafted before and if you
have limited time but desire an adrenaline overload, then
this is a perfect introductory trip package for you because
of the Bhote Kosi is probably the most exciting short rafting
trip in Nepal and best white water adventure in the world
has been variously described as:
"Like a pin-ball Machine-and
you' re the ball"
"Like being flushed down on open air toilet"
"Expedition River" etc.
With the adventure of Bhote
Koshi you also get the chance to observe emerald green fields
are terraced high above the river on precipitous slopes, curious
villagers lining suspension bridges are amazed as we plunge
through cascading waves and chutes of foam. Visiting an ancient
culture, trek in the awe inspiring Himalayas and get a tan
- yep the weather is sunny! We love the excitement of this
trip and it really is the best available in whitewater fun.
The rapids here are a solid class IV- V at high flow, and
a more classic III at lower levels. This true adventure can
be rafted between October and December and February and April.
