Seti River Rafting

Seti River KayakingSeti is a really unique, pleasant and picturesque river passing through two beautiful and contrasting scenic areas. Relatively small volume, blue and warm water makes Seti a perfect rafting for beginners, intermediate and family. Seti rises on the southeast slopes of the sacred Mountain Fishtail and then flows to south, as a fairly typical Nepalese mountain river.

Itinerary

Day 01:
We leave Kathmandu in the early morning and drive to Damauli, our put in point. After the rafts are rigged we will set off down the Seti Khola. We spend the whole day within its forested canyon. The luxuriant vegetation we see is a remnant of the vast forested area, which once covered the middle hills of Nepal.

Even now we are objects of curiosity to the villagers. Traveling by rafts is a perfect way to view undisturbed wildlife. When we stop for lunch we have time to explore,  Photograph, bird watching, swim or relax. Later in the afternoon we encounter a small but technical rapid near the village of Saranghat. Inhabited by Magars, who are renowned for generations of service with

Canyoning Team for Seti Rescue

Seti River menders underground through Pokhara before turning into beautiful rafting river. According to geologists, Pokhara was a glacier thousands of years ago. Hence the city has quite a lot of ravine and cavities underneath. The recent accident with Aradhana Pradhan has made government to think about more fatal accidents in future. Aradhana Pradhan, a girl of two and half was trapped for 23 hours in the bottom of narrow seti ravine unreachable for any adult. Thanks to the recently formed canyoning team who managed to equip the rescue of the toddler. After their relentless effort, they couldn't reach the last 10 m of the Seti gorge. 12 years old Kamal Nepali volunteered to reach those last depths supported by the canyoning team. Kamal Nepali then became hero and was praised by excessive financial grant. But nobody thought about those youths who are financially struggling to establish a rescue team. The idea has emerged almost a year ago but it couldn't be institutionalized in lack of administrative and financial guidance. There will not be kamal Nepali all the time and it may not turn into a success story all the time. All we desperately need is an authorized Rescue Team furnished with more advanced equipments and trainings. Don't Just go with a flow, think aside.
Seti rescue team

the Gurkha forces Saranghat, is a colorful middle hills village. Our first night we will set up camp on a spacious beach below the village.
Day 02
:
After we have finished breakfast and repacked the raft, we will set off down the Seti.. Later we encounter the technical rapid grade 3  shortly after the rapid we leave Seti Khola and enter Trisuli River. Here the middle hills recede and the Terai plain opens before us. The Topography has changed dramatically. The twisted severe rock formations give away to sandstone and gavel deposited by antecedent rivers.

After lunch we have opportunity to visit a unique religious community , Devhgat . Each Year thousands of pilgrims visit the ashram to worship.

At this point Kali Gandaki joins the Trisuli River. The river now becomes the Narayani River. We float further down to a small town Narayanghat. Where we end our River trip.
