Family Rafting Adventures
TRIP HIGHLIGHTS
Whitewater rafting is a great way to spend time with your family. No matter what your age, you are never too young or too old to join in and it’s an activity you can do together and all get joy from. rafting is for the WHOLE family! In today’s world, there’s not many opportunities where you can play all day in the river, enjoying some gentle rapids, eating delicious food, enjoying nature and end the day with an open campfire roasting marshmallows!
The Trisuli offers the perfect whitewater rafting adventure in Nepal for families. Over one or two days depending on your time constraints, we can take you on an adventure your children will never forget.
The Trisuli is a perfect river due to it’s pool drop nature. The rapids are big, but there are very few rocks making it safe for even young children to enjoy.
We have child sized life jackets and helmets available to keep your children safe, and our guides have experience working with children.
TRIP DATES
Available daily except during July-August (monsoon)
The youngest child we have taken is 4, but it will depend on the time of year (for example, monsoon is off limits!!) and you individual child. A sense of adventure and confidence is a must!
Older children are welcome to join other rafting trips as well. Email us for more detailed information on your specific requirements as a family. view a detailed itinerary below.
