Upper Seti Kayaking

Upper Seti river rafting

TRIP HIGHLIGHTS

Perfect for those short of time – just 90 minutes in the raft

Spectacular Himalayan mountain views

Steep non stop rapids

Only thirty minutes from Pokhara

Our Upper Seti Rafting trip is a fantastic half day run, just 30 minutes from Lakeside Pokhara. A must on anyone’s list when kayaking in Nepal. Short and sweet, there are continuous rapids for over 40 minutes, we can even fit in 2 runs if your up for it!

The Upper Seti is one of the shortest and sweetest river trips that we offer. In half a day it has the same amount of rapids on offer as the Kaligandaki does in 3 days! Seti means ‘white’ as this is the color the water runs due to the nonstop rapids. Watch out for ‘Landslide’ rapid…it’s a monster!

Rafting :

Great for those short of time looking for a quick adrenaline rush out of Pokhara

Kayaking :

You will need to be a solid Grade III paddler to take on this river. Depending on the time of year it might be necessary to scout a few of the rapids. A great warm up in the Pokhara area before you tackle more complex rivers like the Madi or Modi. We run the Upper Seti as part of our famous 9 days Multi River Kayak Expedition.

    "Went on their multi river trip, with GRG this November. My second year in a row with them. Amazing as usual! Everything runs smoothly and to time. The guides are so friendly, they can never do enough for you. They adapted the trip to the needs of the group perfectly, depending on how people were going, still pushing everyone's paddling capabilities. Will be back next year!!!"
