    • Natural Water Features: The river is adorned with natural water features that excite your rafting journey. Encounter powerful waves, turbulent sections, and exhilarating drops, making each moment on the river memorable.
    • Teamwork and Bonding: Rafting in Bhotekoshi is a team activity that fosters teamwork and bonding.

    • Professional Guides: Expert rafting guides accompany you on the trip, ensuring your safety and enhancing the overall experience. Their knowledge of the river, rafting techniques, and safety protocols provide reassurance as you navigate through the rapids.
    • Adrenaline Rush: Rafting in Bhotekoshi offers an adrenaline rush like no other. Feel the thrill and excitement as you conquer challenging rapids, experiencing an exhilarating adventure that will leave you with a sense of accomplishment.

    Bhotekoshi is also known as Upper Sun-Koshi. Because the river eventually joins with the big wide Sun Kosi River at Dolalghat, located east of the capital Kathmandu.

    Bhote Koshi River Rafting will be fun and exciting, encountering huge waves and white-water rapids. Withstanding rafting in Bhotekoshi will be challenging, avoiding drops and holes. This fast river flows downstream through many rural farm villages with well-tended paddy fields and dense green forests.

    Bhote Koshi River flows from the higher side of the Tibetan plateau, situated beyond and across the mountain range of Langtang and Jugal, also with high peaks of Dorje-Lakpa and Bhairav glacial pond that feeds Bhote Koshi with many glaciers and tributaries.

    One of the fast-running rivers of Nepal is Bhotekoshi. It leads to great adventure paddling through mighty rapids and bouncy waves, along with views of farm villages and towns along the riverside.

    Bhotekoshi rafting starting point depends upon the volume of water levels and accessibility to reach the river bank because the river runs into a deep gorge and wide valley along the old Nepal and Tibet/ China Friendship Highway.

    The BhoteKoshi rafting begins upon reaching the starting point, where our Captain of the boat and rafting crews will meet. And then take you for an exciting day ride overcoming several good enjoyable rapids and waves. This will make your day worthwhile until it finally reaches the ending point of rafting.
