• Add to wish list

The isolation of this river makes it less traveledl and a fantastic white water and cultural experience. This sparkling river hails its waters from the mighty Mount Kanchenjunga, the third highest peak in the world, which straddles Nepal’s border in the east.
The river itself is accessed by three days of trekking, and in its 131 raftable kilometer length, there are some 120 rapids, which sure as hell mean you are going to be in for the ride of your life,

Day 1 - Morning flight to Basantapur. Here we will make a camp and arrange porters and equipment for our trek into the river wilderness.

Day 2-4: Three days trekking through the villages and farms along a very picturesque ridge with view of Mount Kanchenjunga, Mount Everest and Mount Makalu along the way will lead us to our river where our wild expedition will begin.

Day 5-10: The river begins! The first 20 odd kilometers of this river is virtually one big rapid, no time for warm ups here lads, hold on! In these four days we will pass 120km of outstanding, adrenaline pumping white water with about 100 rapids. The evenings will give us time to relax in the magnitude of this pristine river environment.

Day 11: Finally the raging torrent lets up and we enter the flat Teri land to our take out point. As the river flows to India we head for theairport and a quick flight back to civilisation.
