Karnali is also known as the
longest and biggest river of Nepal, emerges at
Mt. Kailash, an holy mountain, and flows through
the scenic flora and fauna. It features an easy
one-day trekking from the nearest road access to
the put in point. Along the journey, to
encounter with the challenge of 3-5 class rapids
is one pleasure and equally to experience the
remote life through the dense of forest is
another vitality of this trip. Just just enough
easier water to regroup and prepare for the next
big challenge separates rapids like “Captivity”,
Flip and Stripe, Gods House. Towards the end of
the trip the river gradient begins to ease as
the Karnali leaves the mountains and flows out
in to the Genetic plains of the Terai. The dense
of forest thickens as the river broadens, and
the pristine beaches become bigger and more
beautiful. |
