DESCRIPTION

Trekking and Rafting in the Tamur river, the jewel of Kachenjunga

No rafting or kayaking expedition would be complete without an approximate trekking in the Himalayas. So one of the best rivers in the world begins with one of the most spectacular trek in Nepal. After 3 days of trekking accompanied by outstanding views of Everest, Makalu and Kachenjunga, we will arrive to the village of Dobhan, where we put on the river and take on some of the most challenging whitewater in Nepal.

130km of water and some 120 intense rapids, one of the most challenging commercial expedition in Nepal. Whitewaters are awaiting us during the next 6 days that we are going to spend on this river.

Do you want to live strong emotions in an incredible surroundings? This is your expedition!
