01 / THE EXPERIENCE

Discover the journey

There are quite a lot of rivers with this name in Nepal. A rough translation means river from Tibet Bhote Koshi is the main branch of the Sun Koshi and it has been descended by kayak from near the Tibetan border at Kodari. The river is followed by the Arniko Highway from Kathmandu to Lhasa, so access and scouting are relatively easy. The upper valley above Barabise is impressively narrow with steep hillsides shooting up over 2000 m from the river, and there are some dramatic and scenic gorges down at river level. Bhote Koshi is probably the most exciting short rafting trip in Nepal and has been variously described as - like a pin - ball machine and you're the ball like being flushed down an open air toilet if you're into fun, challenge, intense physical activity, and non stop action then this could be you. It makes a great climax for any team who has just finished a longer multi - day trip and want to continue the adrenaline high that white water induces.
