Bhote Koshi River Rafting
Bhote Kosi is one of the best short white water rafting trips of Nepal. The name of Bhotekoshi River has been derived from Bhot; ‘Bhot’ means Tibet and Koshi means ‘River’, the Nepalese old generation still call Tibet as ‘Bhot’. The source of Bhotekoshi river is Himalayas and gushes from Tibet into Nepal through the breathtaking valleys and gorges. The frosty water of Bhotekoshi River mostly originating from Tibetan mountain Shisapangma 8013m flows violently to Nepal that changes it gushing-speed only in Barhabise then flows in Lamosangu Hydropower Dam. The Bhote Koshi rafting offers an endless challenge and excitement to any rafters. This will be an ideal package either for veteran or beginner on river rafting. If you have never rafted before but want to get an experience, we suggest you to do only on the lower part, the first day of this river trip.
Bhote koshi river is one of the most fun things you can do right out of Kathmandu and a great way to get an adrenaline fix during the low water months, but it should only be attempted with a company that has a lot of experience on the Bhote Kosi, and is running the absolute best guides, safety equipment and safety kayakers. Most trips are two days, but usually the whole river is rafted on the second day, so if you are already up there then it can be done as a day trip. The river drops steeply offering relentless stretches from class III-IV Levels of rapids. Boulder gardens, small waterfalls, steep chutes and 90 degree bends are some of the obstacles to be overcome. Bhote koshi River is not typical big river flowing from the Himalayan but it is a steep and technical river which requires a reactive crew.
The best time to raft on the Bhotekoshi is from the last week of February through end of May and from last week of September through November. The features of rapids on Bhotekoshi river are named – the Great Wall, the Water Paradise, Frog in a Blender, Water world of confusion, Gerbil in the plumbing and so. After a fun filled action packed day, relax in unspoiled surrounding on the beach. if you need more information about Bhote koshi river rafting fell free to contact us.
