Itinerary

Pickup from your Hotel and Drive to the Old Bamboo Bridge

Seti River Rafting

After enjoying breakfast at your hotel, our representative will pick you up in a private vehicle. You’ll then embark on a scenic 30-minute drive to the rafting starting point, the iconic old bamboo bridge.

During the journey, take in the mesmerizing views of the Pokhara Valley, Phewa Lake, and the lush green hills surrounding the area. Along the way, the representatives will provide valuable insights and instructions, sharing details about the Seti River and what to expect from your exciting rafting adventure.

Preparation and Commencing of the Pokhara River Rafting

Upon arriving at the Seti River rafting starting point in Pokhara, you'll be greeted by experienced guides who will walk you through essential safety measures and provide important information. Afterward, you'll receive your safety gear, which it’s important to check thoroughly. We also recommend inspecting the raft and paddles before starting your journey.

Once everything is in place, the true adventure begins. Your raft will be launched into the Seti River, accompanied by a professional guide. This is your chance to put your physical strength to the test as you paddle through the white waters. The guide will offer continuous instructions, ensuring you keep the raft moving smoothly. As you navigate, enjoy the stunning surrounding scenery, passing by picturesque villages, hidden landscapes, and the breathtaking Annapurna range in the distance.

Return To Hotel

After an exciting hour and a half of rafting and some time to rest on the banks of the Seti River, Snowyoda's representatives will drive you back to your hotel, officially concluding your Seti River Rafting adventure in Pokhara. The drive back will take another 30 minutes, but this time, it will be filled with the weariness of a thrilling day and a heart full of cherished memories—quite different from the eager excitement of the morning.

Trisuli River Rafting

After enjoying a delicious breakfast at your hotel, our representative will pick you up and transfer you to Charaudi, the starting point for your Trisuli River Rafting trip. Before you dive into the rafts, an experienced guide will provide a briefing on the trip's details and safety protocols.

The first day's rafting takes you from Charaudi to Kurintar, where the rapids range between grade 2 and 3, providing an exciting mix of thrills.

A break is taken for lunch on a scenic beach along the Trisuli River, known for its distinctive sculptured boulders. After lunch, the river enters the Trisuli Gorge, where the canyon narrows, and the surrounding cliffs become steep and lush with dense forest. The current picks up speed, and the rapids grow more intense and frequent.

Once the rafting is complete, our representative will drive you back to your hotel in Pokhara, where you'll be dropped off to relax and unwind.

Upper Seti River Rafting

After enjoying a hearty breakfast at your hotel, your half-day Upper Seti River Rafting adventure begins with a scenic drive from Pokhara Lakeside, as our representative will pick you up directly from your hotel. Enjoy a picturesque road journey to the starting point, where you’ll meet your expert rafting guide. After a comprehensive safety briefing and equipment check, your thrilling rafting experience begins.

The Upper Seti River is known for its fast-flowing, crystal-clear waters and Grade III/IV rapids, delivering an invigorating experience perfect for adventure seekers. As you paddle through the white water, you'll be surrounded by lush forests, rolling hills, and stunning views of the Annapurna and Machhapuchhre peaks. The river offers an ideal balance of adrenaline-pumping rapids and calm stretches, creating a perfect blend of excitement and serenity.

After about 90 minutes on the river, your rafting journey concludes at a scenic riverside spot. Here, you can relax and enjoy lunch by the riverbank, soaking in the tranquil atmosphere and natural beauty.

Once you’ve rested, our representative will drive you back to your hotel. With the rest of the day free, you’re welcome to explore Pokhara, unwind, or even choose another exciting adventure to continue your day.
