Nepal is not only famous for its towering mountains and scenic trails—it’s also home to some of the best white-water rafting experiences in the world. With thousands of glacial-fed rivers flowing from the Himalayas, rafting in Nepal offers an unbeatable combination of thrilling rapids, pristine nature, and cultural encounters along the riverbanks. At Hiking Paradise Pvt. Ltd., we offer professionally guided rafting trips that cater to all levels—from first-timers looking for fun and safety to adventure seekers ready to conquer technical rapids.
Nepal’s river systems vary widely in terms of difficulty and landscape, making it ideal for everyone. If you’re short on time or want a gentle introduction, a day trip on the Trishuli River—just a few hours from Kathmandu and Pokhara—offers exciting rapids mixed with calmer sections perfect for swimming and relaxing. For more experienced rafters, multi-day expeditions on the Seti, Bhote Koshi, Kali Gandaki, Marsyangdi, and Sun Koshi Rivers provide a deeper dive into remote wilderness, sandy river beaches, cascading waterfalls, and small villages that reflect authentic Nepali life. These multi-day adventures include camping under the stars, warm meals by the fire, and plenty of moments to enjoy the untouched surroundings.
Rafting in Nepal isn’t just about adrenaline; it’s a way to travel through the country’s diverse terrains—from lush jungles and terraced hills to deep gorges and wide valleys—all while accompanied by trained guides who prioritize safety and environmental care. All rafting trips are equipped with certified rafting gear, rescue equipment, safety kayakers, and professional river guides who brief participants before every trip. Whether you’re traveling with friends, your family, or joining a group tour, Hiking Paradise ensures every detail is taken care of—so you can focus on the adventure.
The best seasons for rafting in Nepal are pre-monsoon (March to May) and post-monsoon (September to early December), when water levels are ideal and the weather is pleasant. However, some rivers like the Trishuli are accessible nearly year-round. We also offer customized rafting packages, including combinations with trekking, jungle safaris, or cultural tours for a well-rounded travel experience. Whether you’re gliding through gentle waters or paddling through Class IV rapids, a rafting trip with Hiking Paradise Pvt. Ltd. lets you explore Nepal in one of the most exciting and memorable ways.
