Setting off for the tour, we leave behind Kathmandu and drive towards Khudi. It takes around eight hours drive to reach Khudi from Kathmandu. Khudi is a small village that is situated in Lamjung District. The first hours of the ride takes us off the “good” tarmac roads and tends to be a little bouncy in places. After arriving at Khudi, we will commence a short trek up to Bhulbhule today where we will camp for overnight. Before dinner, our guide will brief you and provide some tips and training on land about safety and paddling. As rafting in this river is one of the most challenging stuff, thus pay attention to every details and statement stated by our guide.
On the following day, we will have our breakfast and then hike up to Ngadi. This is our put-in-point for the Marshyangdi raft. Challenges are yet to come. Marshyangdi River is full of adventures, thrill and spills. At first you will experience some good and mild rapids whereas as the time passes by, you will soon experience a Grade 4 rapid which includes: Instant Karma, Twinkie, Adrenaline, and Mama’s Big Butt. Upon arrival at Khudi, we will stop for overnight camping.
After breakfast, we embark our today’s tour. Each and every day of this tour is itself challenging and interesting. With the increasing size of the river, you must improve your rafting skills day-by-day. Along with the rafting tour, enjoy the beautiful green surrounding. After five hours of fun rafting, stop for lunch on a sandy beach. You can choose the sandy beach you want to stay for lunch. Afterwards, continue your adventurous rafting tour until you reach Middle Marshyandi Hydro Dam. This is one of the ideal location with beautiful scenario and sandy beach.
On the second last day of our trip, we raft from Dam to Paundi. Paundi is located beyond the Dam. On this day, you can encounter Grade 3 rapids. From Paundi, another three hours of raft brings us to Tuture.
