Trishuli River Rafting Overview
Trishuli river rafting is a short four-day trip away from hustle and bustle of Kathmandu valley. It lies at the west of Kathmandu. Trishuli rafting offers big, bouncy, fun and splashy rapids. Trishuli River has class 2-3 rapids which make rafting suitable for all age groups. It offers rapids of varying difficulty levels, making it suitable for both novice and experienced rafters. The rafting trip usually takes about 2-3 days and passes through scenic landscapes and remote villages. The best time for rafting in the Trishuli River is from September to December and from February to June.
Enjoying the scenic landscape of each side of the highway, you drive on Prithvi Highway alongside Trishuli River from Kathmandu to Charaudi in Dhading district. You take on the boat on the same day after getting a briefing and some basic rafting training by your river guide at the put-in point. The two days rafting on the intense Trishuli River is guaranteed to fill you with the adrenaline rush.
Moving along with the giant waves and diving from cliffs into Trishuli surely makes for many photographic moments and memories. You return back to the capital with one of the most interesting adventure sports checked off the list. Most of the rivers are closed for rafting during the monsoon season but that is when Trishuli attract more rafters, as the intensity of the rapids increases and become more exciting and challenging.
