in Nepal |
Nepal
is one of the best places in the world for river rafting.
Numerous fine rivers offer excellent
opportunities for rafting, canoeing and simply immersing
oneself in the magnificent landscape. Nepal's thundering
waters, coming from the glaciers of the mighty Himalayan,
provide unmatched thrills. No other country has such
a choice of trips on wild rivers with warm water, a
subtropical climate and white sand beaches. Truly, this
could be the highlight of your lifetime.
Nepal has earned a reputation as one of the best destinations
in the world for white water rafting. Nepal's thundering
waters, coming from the glaciers of the mighty Himalayas,
provide unmatched thrills for rafting and immersing
oneself in the landscape.
Rivers are graded on a scale of one to six, with one
being a swimming pool and six a one-way ticket to your
maker.
White water rafting is negotiating river rapids and
obstacles in an inflatable rubber boat with a team of
up to eight people and a river guide. Rivers are graded
from easy to near-impossible according to their size,
the intensity of their rapids and the difficulties that
may affect rescue attempts.
