Life is a daring adventure or nothing, as Helen Keller said, and that applies seamlessly to Bhote Koshi River Rafting. This is a full-on, action-oriented rafting river with many rapids. As the river is swift and steep, the thrill continues throughout the descent. Some prior rafting experience is recommended before attempting Bhote Koshi. For the perfect blend of experience, Mountain Hawk suggests trying Trishuli River Rafting first. About 25 km of continuous fun in the rapids combined with spectacular scenery make this a remarkable outing. During slower stretches, you can enjoy views of terraced farmlands, rolling hills, riverside villages, and more.
The Bhote Koshi River Rafting start point is about 95 km from Kathmandu. The trip passes through the beautiful town of Dhulikhel and the town of Panchkhal along the Araniko Highway. The route is also similar to the approach to the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra from Jhangmu. The rafting starting point is near the Tibetan border. The rapids on this river are riskier and more thrilling than those of the Trishuli. For this reason, rafters are recommended to have at least one rafting trip on another river before attempting Bhote Koshi. If you are looking for a continuous, rough-rapids ride, this is an ideal choice. The beach fun after reaching the camping site offers a marvelous treat of bonfire and music. The green forests, Kodari Highway, and continuous rapids will keep you captivated. The rapids can reach Grade V. You can choose to continue rafting the following day or go hiking around the villages or jungle on the second day before returning to Kathmandu.
