River Marshyangdi Rafting:
The "raging river", drains the northern slope of the Annapurna Mountains. It was
only opened to rafting in 1996 and yields some of the most exciting class iv-v
white water in Nepal. This river demands 100% Commitment from both crew and
guide. It is totally different from the big volume rivers like the Sun Koshi and
Karnali, the rapids are technical and require a very different approach. Big
Volume Rivers need power and a good line, the Marsyangdi needs fast reactions
from the crew to get through this pin ball machine river. The Marsyangdi quickly
forges raft crews of complete strangers into true teams.
Located on the eastern side of the Annapurna circuit, the Marsyangdi River has
long been famous for the beautiful views. With each twist and turn the steep
sided gorge walls frame a new mountain backdrop.
