Tamor
River Rafting & Kanchanjanga Trek-16 Days |
 |
| Tamur
River and Kanchenjunga Trek 12 DAYS No expedition to Nepal would
be complete without a trek in the Himalayas and its no accident
the one of the worlds finest rivers starts with one of Nepal
's most scenic treks. Our 4-day trekking route follows a 3000-meter
ridge through beautiful woods and meadows with magnificent views
of Kanchenjunga, Makalu and the Everest mastiff, before dropping
into the lush villages of the Tamur valley. A truly memorable
approach to this classic Himalayan white water descent. The
Tamur and its tributaries drain the snows of Kachenjunga, third
highest peak in the world. Constrained by steep valley walls,
it becomes Nepal's sixth largest river and one of the remotest
white water river trips of its length. 120 km of breath taking
river takes us on a journey through the heart of eastern Nepal.
With over 100 class 3 4 + rapids, the Tamur offers a unique
six days of white water taken at a leisurely pace with plenty
of time to venture up hidden side valleys and explore remote
villages. No previous experience is required for rafters however,
a reasonable level of fitness and a positive attitude are a
must.
