Trisuli: This river is very popular for short trips, as access to the Prithivi Highway makes "breaking off" the journey easy. The Trisuli is also an ideal beginner's river.

Sun Kosi: The "River of Gold" is considered one of the ten best rafting/kayaking rivers in the world. From Raighat (Day 5) it is only one day's trek to the Mount Everest view point, so an optional detour is possible.

Kali Gandaki: A total of 105 km covered in Five days with excellent white water, and magnificent mountain views of the Annapurna South and the Fishtail Peak (Machhapuchre).

Karnali: The far West of Nepal is one of the most remote and least explored areas of the Himalayas. A two day trek with porters carrying all the gear is necessary to reach the put in point. The trip lasts ten days, including trekking, and takes you on a real wild-river adventure. Take out point is Chisapani, close to the newly opened Royal Bardia National Park, where an optional Wildlife Safari through largely untouched wilderness is possible.

Arun: The easiest way to get to this river is by catching a plane to the put in point at Tumlingtar. Alternatively you can drive for 1 ½ days and then trek for three days. The Arun provides some of the most challenging rafting in Nepal, and although the difficult access makes only three days on the river possible, the remote location and spectacular mountain views make this a real wilderness experience.

Seti: The short Seti River makes for an ideal two day introduction to rafting. From the put in point at Damauli, the Seti merges into the Trisuli on the second day. This trip offers beautiful mountain views of the Annapurna South, Fish-tail and Lamjung Himal. Bhote Koshi: One of the best short rafting trips in Nepal which covers 18 km of continuous white water in just one day.
