The Trishuli River offers a mix of rapids, suitable for both beginners and experienced rafters. Expect mostly Class III and IV rapids, with some sections reaching Class V during the monsoon season.
The ideal time for rafting in Trishuli is during the pre-monsoon (March-May) and post-monsoon (September-November) seasons. Water levels are moderate, offering exciting rapids without being too dangerous.
Rafting trips on the Trishuli River typically last 1-3 days, depending on the chosen route and the group's preferences and duration of rafting session is 3-4 hours.
Pack quick-drying clothes, swimwear, a towel, sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, insect repellent, and a waterproof bag for your valuables.
Always wear a life jacket and helmet provided by the rafting company. Listen carefully to the safety briefing and follow the guide's instructions at all times.
White water rafting requires a moderate level of fitness. Be prepared for some physical exertion, especially when paddling through rapids.
