The warm and
beautiful Seti River passes through stunning jungle scenery,
green hills and valleys. It is an excellent river for
bird-watchers and those interested in the abundance of nature
found on this trip.
This normally gentle river has plenty of small and
straightforward rapids. During the monsoon months the intensity
of the rapids increases and attracts a radically different set
of rafters.
Rafting on Seti River - is an ideal trip for those wanting to
experience some of the stunning river scenery in Nepal without
the intensity of complex or challenging rapids. The Seti is a
very suitable river for family trips and it's the best river to
learn kayaking in Nepal.
