The Bhote Koshi River is Nepal's most intense accessible white-water river – grade IV–V rapids through a spectacular vertical-walled canyon 3 hours from Kathmandu on the Araniko Highway near the Tibet border. The river descends dramatically through a narrow gorge of near-vertical rock, creating powerful rapid sequences in close succession. The combination of technical difficulty and extraordinary scenery makes the Bhote Koshi the standard recommendation for experienced rafters looking for Nepal's most challenging day rafting experience.
The one-day Bhote Koshi rafting trip is not suitable for first-time rafters – previous white-water experience and comfort with swimming in fast water is recommended. The multi-day option (2–3 days) includes camping at The Last Resort facility adjacent to the river, with the option to combine rafting with bungee jumping (the bungee bridge is directly above the river) and canyoning for a complete adventure programme. Our Bhote Koshi package includes transport from Kathmandu, all equipment, certified guide and safety kayaker, meals on multi-day programmes. Best season: October–May.

End of the Package.
It is 4am on the banks of the Trisuli River in Himalayan Nepal. We are awoken by the metallic clank of enamel mugs and a weather-beaten hand, thrusting steaming hot chocolate into our little tent. The steam from our breath fills the tent as we rub the sleepy dust from our eyes and straighten out the cricks in our backs. Slowly we emerge, wrapped in thick blankets and wearing yesterday clothes, which were far too warm to consider changing at that ungodly hour.
We made our way groggily up the mountain by flashlight, feeling the effects of little sleep and the biting cold, until we finally stopped on a ridge. As the false dawn spilled its first vestige of light over the mountains, we were pleasantly surprised to see standing on the same ridge, in absolute pin-dropping silence, other intrepid travelers congregated for this shared experience.
And there before our eyes, Mount Everest, in all its majesty and bathed in golden light from the sun’s earliest rays, took our breath away. No room for cold now, our heats lifted along with our spirits and we were left mesmerised and speechless at the sheer awe of this magical life-changing moment.
