The River Rush

We leave Kathmandu and drive toward Malekhu, our put-in point on the Trishuli River. After reaching the river, the crew prepares the rafts and expedition equipment while we receive a safety briefing and get ready for our first day on the water. Once everything is ready, we launch onto the Trishuli and begin our journey downstream. We spend the day getting familiar with the river, navigating the first rapids and enjoying the surrounding hills before setting up our first riverside camp. Overnight: Riverside camp\ Meals: Lunch, Snacks & Dinner\ Activity: Drive, river preparation & rafting

We wake beside the river, have breakfast and pack camp before getting back on the water. Today we spend more time navigating the exciting sections of the Trishuli. The river cuts through green hills and narrow gorges, with a mixture of rapids and calmer stretches. Between the whitewater, there is time to relax, swim where conditions are safe and enjoy the scenery. By evening, we find a suitable riverside campsite and settle in for another night beside the river. Overnight: Riverside camp\ Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Snacks & Dinner\ Activity: Full-day rafting & camping

After breakfast, we pack camp and continue downstream. The river becomes increasingly exciting as we encounter more challenging rapids and deeper sections of the Trishuli. Working together with our guides, we navigate the whitewater before returning to calmer stretches where we can enjoy the landscape. The day ends with another riverside camp, good food and stories from the day's adventure. Overnight: Riverside camp\ Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Snacks & Dinner\ Activity: Rafting & riverside camping

Our final day on the Trishuli brings us toward Fishling, our take-out point. We enjoy the last sections of whitewater before taking the boats out and packing the expedition equipment. After several days of river life, reaching Fishling marks the end of our Trishuli expedition. From here, you can either continue your journey back toward Kathmandu or extend the adventure with an optional Chitwan National Park experience. Meals: Breakfast & Lunch\ Activity: Final rafting day, take-out & onward travel Optional Chitwan National Park Extension Want to trade whitewater for wildlife?

Chitwan National Park extension is optional and priced separately.
