We will then stop for a spot of lunch on a beautiful sandy beach before taking on the biggest series of rapids of the day. Highlights include rapids such as Ladies Delight, Landslide, Monsoon, and the monster Upset! Make it through these and you are home and dry. Just a quick flat paddle to our riverside camp, Gurung Valley. Here we will take you out, have a chance to relax on our private beach, and give you a cup of tea to recharge your batteries!
It’s then a quick walk up the hill where your vehicle will be waiting to take you to the popular tourist town of Lakeside, Pokhara, which is around a 3-hour drive.
