Sunkoshi River Rafting

Day by day Itinerary
Day 01 - Drive to Dolalghat and start the rafting in Sunkoshi River.

After breakfast we drive to Dolalghat the put-in-point of Sun Koshi. The drive is beautiful. In clear weather you will have a magnificent view of the Himalayan Ranges. Upon arrival at Dolalghat we unload the gear - lunch will be served and a full safety briefing will be given by your expedition leader. The first and second days are easy paddling. The big one you will encounter today is a class 4+ rapid "Rotten Cave". We will choose our beach campsite, where dinner will be served amidst the splendor of the star-filled sky.

Day 02 - Encounter with rapid Meat Grinder. Overnight in Camp.

After breakfast we pack up the gear and start rolling down the river. Today you will encounter a big class 4+rapid “Meat grinder". It is fairly straight run down the center avoiding holes left and right. A few meters below here the Tamba Koshi River joins the Sun Koshi on the left with a beach on the confluence. There is another beautiful Shiva temple overlooking the two rivers. We camp here.

Day 03 - Exciting day in Sun Koshi River. Overnight in camp.

Today a few kilometers below the confluence of the Likhu Khola is a short, class 3+ rapid ‘Pre-Anxiety’ soon followed by a long class 4 rapid ‘High Anxiety’ with a large hole on the left halfway down and a series of holes at the bottom. Float a while and then camp.

Day 04 - Rapid Harkapur, the biggest one of the trip. Overnight in camp.

This day starts with several class 3+ rapids then a quick stop for buying food and maybe beer. Then prepare for a big and interesting one ‘Harkapur 2 and 3 the hardest rapid on the river which should be carefully scouted. Camp for overnight.

Day 05 - Rapid Jaws and overnight in camp.

Some kilometer below Harkapur, Dudh Koshi River joins the Sun Koshi from the left. Below here the river widens into an arid area of gravel. You meet some small rapids and will reach into another aptly named rapid 'Jaws'. Camp for overnight.

Day 06 - Hard day in Sun Koshi. Rapid Rhino Rock and Rapid Jungle Corridor. Overnight in Camp.

Today is a hard day as you will encounter most of the grade 4+ rapids - you are straight into good exciting rapid "Rhino Rock" which is a grade 4+ followed by "Jungle Corridor" a kilometer of continuous white water. Waterfalls cascade on both sides of the river. One waterfall makes a great spot for a team shower.

Day 07 - Easy rafting day. Learn Kayaking if you wish.

Last few days are mainly wave trains if you are interested you can try kayaking where our experts will teach you the basic skills needed to maneuver the boats or learn the Eskimo roll. Overnight in Camp.

Day 08 - Final day of rafting. After rafting finishes we ride a long way to Chitwan, Kathmandu or Pokhara.

The last stretch of river which brings you to the last class 4+ ‘Big Dipper’ is a series of huge standing waves. A few kilometer later big Arun and Tamur rivers join together to form the Sapta Koshi. Then you float along on the powerful current, the hills dramatically give way to totally flat Terai and the northern plains of India. This is the end of a classic and memorable river journey. We will finish our trip around 2 pm pack the gear and then drive back to Kathmandu around 4 pm from Chattra. This takes around 13/14 hours.
