In high water the Karnali is a serious undertaking with
fairly straightforward, yet huge rapids. Even at lower
levels it is still not a walk in the park, as the rapids

highlight of this classic river journey is a 7-km long
gorge "Thrill-a-minute roller-coaster ride" with rapids
at every bend. Truly though, any season suits the
Karnali. Different Treks Nepal funds a school along the
banks of the Karnali River. A portion of every Karnali
trip is donated to the school. Your expeditions will not
only is a great experience, but a meaningful
contribution to the future by providing supplies for the
school children. If you would like more information
