The river
combines one of the best short
treks of Nepal with some really
challenging white water action.
Four days of trekking from
the nearest road access to
the put in point through the
remote villas, forest and
offers amazing mountain views
Kanchanjunga, Makalu with
an exhilarating river journey.
The adventure of Tamur’s
4 to 5 class constant rapids
will bring descending rafts
and kayaks down in dread.
We start our journey from
kathmandu to Biratnagar by
bus or by air. We begin with
a four day trek from Basantapur
up over Milke Danda Range
to Dobhan and from Dobhan
our rafting begins and end
at Chatara. The Tamur River
mingles the trekking with
rafting which fulfills the
interest of both trekking
lovers and rafting lovers.
