Flowing from Mount Fishtail, this picturesque river passes through two contrasting scenic areas with white beaches and warm blue water. This trip is perfect for the entire family. A 4 day kayak school is also available on this river for beginner and intermediate kayakers. This trip is ideal for combining with travel between Kathmandu and Pokhara or with going on Safari at the Chitwan National Park.
