Kali Gandaki River
A deservedly popular and medium length of river trip is
combining exhilarating white water with fine scenery. One of
the famous names of Himalayan Rivers, The Kali Gandaki
raises in Mustang an enclave of Nepal Poking into Tibet on
the other side of the Himalayas here; it is a flat and
braided river, flowing in an arid open valley. As it tumbles
down between the majestic Dhaulagiri and the Annapurna
ranges, it creates one of the world's deepest gorges.
The explorer Michael Peissel ran this stretch of the river
in a small hovercraft in 1973 and at least two other groups
have rafted and kayaked in this section.
All day you have to continuous keeping paddlers busy against
all technical rapids on the Kali Gandaki River. Both
experienced and novice rafters love this. Nowhere else is it
possible to find such diversity on a 3 day raft trip. Nice
drops, sparkling chutes and turbulent rapids provide class
III to IV+ runs during the fall and spring seasons.
After your exhilarating white water trip you have options
either to drive or fly back to Kathmandu or to visit the
Royal Chitwan National Park or again you can go for the
trekking trip in the popular area of Annapurna region for
few days
