Sunkoshi Rafting, Sunkoshi ” River of gold” is one of the finest rivers available for rafting because it is considered to be one of the 10 classic rivers in the world.
It starts from the bottom of Mt. Sisapangma and Langtang range of Nepal, Tibet border & runs through the Mahabharat Parbat range. Gathering power from tributaries draining some of the highest peaks of the world it emerges on to the northern plains of India where it flows into the Gangas.
From Dolalghat to its end at Chautara it runs for 270 km with grade 3-5 rapids. The experience is only enhanced by the experienc of remote village nestled on the laps of hills; Hindu temples and religious spots along the way make this trip really joyful.
