Kali Gandaki River Rafting

The Kali Gandaki River, named after the ferocious goddess Kali, is one of the most significant rivers in Nepal. This river originates at the highland Tibetan plateaus of the Mustang. It flows down the Himalayas, making the world's deepest gorge, the Kali Gandaki Gorge.

The Kali Gandaki Gorge divides two gigantic glaciated peaks, the Dhaulagiri and Annapurna, above 8,000 m. The Kali Gandaki River is also considered one of Nepal's holiest rivers, as described in the Holy Book.

Kali Gandaki River rafting is the perfect blend of exhilarating rapids, majestic beauty, and a unique culture. The river offers challenging rapids for those in grades 4+, some named ‘Small Brother,’ ‘Refund,' and ‘Big Brother.’

The starting point for Kaligandaki River rafting is in Beni. You drive for approximately four hours to reach Beni from Pokhara.

Along with the adventurous rafting trip, you will enjoy the scenic beauty of the steep-walled gorge and the spectacular mountain view.

At the end of each day's exhausting trip, you will spend the night at the fantastic sandy beach in the camp.
