Monsoon Madness - Trishuli High Water


Its monsoon time and a calling for all river junkies once again. Not much can be said about the Trishuli river at other times but during the monsoon season, its a story untold. Huge runoffs from the tributary rivers make this river swell and shear with voluminous water making it a sheer delight to whitewater enthusiasts.

A two-day trip starting at Baireni and finishing at Gaighat this is a classic river experience. You run all the good rapids, watch the river grow as its tributaries join, marvel as it cuts its way through impressive gorges before it spills over the lowlands. During the trip, we camp on the sandy beaches surrounded by streaming tropical forest.
