About Trishuli River

Trishuli River is one of the famous whitewater sports destinations in Nepal. It is easily accessible from Chitwan, Pokhara, and Kathmandu, the three main tourist cities in Nepal. Travelers can enjoy a one to multiple day rafting trip on Trishuli River.

The rapids are not that challenging or risky. You will witness stunning scenery and a peaceful environment. Most of the river follows a highway, but when you are on a raft on the river, the highway doesn't affect your adventure at all.

You will not even notice the highway. In the monsoon season, the water level rises, and the rapids are much more intense, making it an ideal time for experienced rafters to enjoy the thrill of whitewater rafting in Nepal.

  • Teamwork and coordination: Rafting is all about teamwork and coordination. You have to paddle in sync with fellow rafters and maintain balance. Listen to your guide's command and tackle the rapids together.
  • Post-rafting: You will end the Trishuli River rafting at Mugling. Upon reaching the take-out point, you will have some time to change your clothes and have some refreshments.
