Kali Gandaki Rafting – 3 Days
About this experience
The Kali Gandaki is the connoisseur's medium river: continuous class III–IV rapids, beach camps under 8,000 m peaks, and no road along the river once you're in. Put in near Maldhunga and take out three days downstream. Professional guides, all safety kayaks, camping and meals included; ends with a drive back to Pokhara.
Highlights

Traveller reviews
Heart in mouth, and then straight back for another look over the edge. Safety briefing was thorough and the gear was checked twice.
The setting is spectacular even before anything happens. Fair price for how well the whole thing is run.
