| "A fantastic trip of which every part was perfect. There was great food, great rafting and a great social community made all the staff go beyond the call of duty to make sure that everyone had a good time. I would not have felt safe doing such a hard river with any other company."
Cathy Palmer, Marsyhangdi '08

Turbulent rapids intertwine with abrupt drops as we
dodge our way down intricate chutes of sparkling water.
Village terraces cling precariously to the slopes and
surreal snow capped peaks hang suspended above us as we
drift through the world's deepest gorge. Being one of
the holiest rivers in Nepal, every junction of the Kali
Gandaki is dotted with cremation sites and above ground
burial mounds.

The Karnali, Nepal's mightiest and pristine river,
descends through the Himalayas in a series of
magnificent gorges. In traditional Nepalese fashion,
dozens of porters carry our equipment for two days as we
trek to one of Nepal's most isolated and least explored
areas. Expect exceptionally big volume rafting through tropical
jungles inhabited by the nomads traditionally known as
'Routes', deserted beaches and small villages.

'Raging
River', in the local dialect, aptly describes one
of the best whitewater runs in the world. Only recently
opened for commercial rafting (many rapids have not yet been
named), Marshyangdi is one of the next generation
of rivers in Nepal, steeper and with a much more continuous
stretch of rapids. The trek is stunning with great views
of the Manaslu and the Annapurnas ahead of you the entire
time. The scenery is breathtaking.

The warm waters of the Sun Koshi surge for 270 km between
roads. The river has whipped foamy water where narrow canyons
constrict the river
flow and the cataracts are long and powerful. There are
dozens of adrenaline pumping rapids and miles of calmer
water to reflect on
this beautiful area.
