Bhotekoshi River Rafting: 01-02 Days
The river Bhote Koshi lays just 3 hours drive away from Kathmandu. The river is without a doubt the most exiting thing you can do without excessive risk and in relative comfort. It is one of the best two days river journey in the world. The river is very steep and has a very continuous stream. A unique combination of exceptionally fun and challenging rapids without it ever getting past the point of recreation.
