SUN KOSHI

The Sun Koshi River is famous in rafting circles, and with good reason. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience… particularly during high waters, when the rapids can swell to massive sizes, sometimes making the rafts completely disappear from sight. Gathering strength from tributaries draining the highest mountains in the world the white water on the Sun Kosi is legendary, even expedition-size rafts disappear into the vastness of crashing waves and cascading, boiling water.

This is one of the10 most exciting white water rafting destinations in the world, roaring past remote villages and green fertile mountains covered with forests and rice terraces, where local inhabitants can be seen in their daily rural activities. The beginning of the trip sees high mountains, open valley, forests and small remote villages. The final days bring you to open plains and the thriving village of Chatara. After the monsoon the river is high and wild, and definitely not for the faint-hearted. Whipped foamy white where narrow gorges constrict the river’s flow. The warm waters of the Sun Kosi surge snake and wind for 270 km to the east of Nepal.

This is an ideal trip for those wanting to combine peaceful stretches of stunning scenery, some challenging rapids and the experience of a lengthy trip where lifelong friendships can often begin
