Nepal: 20 Peak Adventures
Raft the Sun Kosi
By Karl Samson

Destination NepalIf it's a challenging wilderness river expedition you're looking for, there's no better choice in Nepal than the Sun Kosi River. Considered one of the top rafting trips in the entire world, the Sun Kosi is packed with Class IV and V rapids, though the trip starts out with a couple days of easy paddling in Class II and III water. After spending most of a day getting to the put-in, you'll push off into the current and begin an unparalleled adventure. Each day you'll paddle till your arms feel like rubber, and each night you'll pitch camp on a remote riverside beach. This is the longest whitewater run in Nepal and is an absolute classic.
