Bhote Koshi River Rafting is highly popular among adventure lovers. It is one of the most famous rivers for whitewater rafting and kayaking. The River originates in the Tibetan Plateau and flows steeply, making numerous technical rapids. Based on its challenges, it is categorized as IV-V. Previous rafting experience is highly recommended.
Driving about 3 hours through the Araniko Highway, you reach the Lamo Snghu dam, which is then put at the point of the Bhote Koshi Rafting. In the backdrop, the Langtang range and Dorje Lhakpa sparkle with extreme fascination. After the guides' briefing, the rafting begins. Safety measures such as a helmet, life jacket, and others are applied. One after another, the rapids come, and you may not get time to relax at some places, and you keep rowing the paddle. Class III rapids are followed by the more challenging ones, rated as Class IV. The rapids of the Bhote Koshi River include Frog in the Blender, John's Home, Gerbil in the Plumbing, Liquid Bliss, and Dazed and Confused. The River has a comprehensive and peaceful beach where you can spend hours reading books or listening to music. A campfire is set at the beach or the resort for the multi-day rafters.
