KALIGANDAKI RIVER 04 DAYS

As the Kali Gandaki tumbles down between the majestic Dhaulagiri and the Annapurna ranges, it forges one of the world's deepest river canyons.

The recent damming of the lower portion of this river has left us with one of Nepal's premier medium-length river journeys; combining great whitewater with some of the most beautiful scenery in Nepal, seldom-visited villages, abundant wildlife, sandy beaches and beautiful waterfalls.

The rapids on the Kali Gandaki are much more technical and continuous, which will keep paddlers busy all day. Both experienced and novice rafters love this diversity, which is difficult to find on any other 3-day trip
Nice drops, sparkling chutes and turbulent rapids provide class III to IV+ runs during the fall and spring seasons.

Detailed Itinerary

DAY 01	At around 7/8 am, you drive for around 3-4 hrs to the put-in point near Beni. Throughout this drive you have stunning views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri peaks as well as the sacred Machapuchare. Upon arrival, you unload all the equipment and you will receive a full safety briefing. Have lunch and then the guide will take you to the river starting point ready to begin your exciting 3 days raft trip. First day you begin with some class III rapids this is a warm up for the team, after 10/15 minutes you will be encountering 2 big class 4 rapids i.e. ‘Small Brother’ and ‘Big Brother’. Your guide will be making you work hard at doing exercises to work as a team maneuvering the raft efficiently. After scouting the rapid, the safety kayaks will go first then the raft. Soon after encountering these two big rapids you will reach the Modi Khola confluence where you will choose the beach for the evening campsite.
DAY 02	Once the rafts are packed you start down the river for a day mixed with adrenaline calm and spectacular scenery including views of Annapurna 1 and Himachuli. You will tackle many class III sections and the challenging class IV named REFUND. This section of river is abundant with vines, wildlife and lush vegetation hanging from the cliff faces. Your campsite is below the village of Purti Ghat.
DAY 03	Soon after being back on the water you reach the holy village of Seti Beni. The river has deposited a house size boulder in the confluence with a smaller tributary. Since confluence is considered holy places in the Hindu religion, this boulder has become an important shrine to the local river people. There is usually a great audience to watch and listen to the spectacle as each team negotiates the rapid that has formed around this holy place. Not long after this it is time for the journey to end. You load up the gear and prepare for the bus journey back to Pokhara.
DAY 04	Drive from Pokhara to Kathmandu.
