Marshyangdi River Rafting
The Splash Rivers of the World project is an ongoing research project to find all the rivers of the World that are rafted. We aim to make this the best online resource available for information on all rafted rivers Worldwide. We are speaking to local schools to get them involved in the research as part of their geography course. If you would like you school to be involved please get in touch.
MARSYANGDI river 5 DAYS
The “raging river”, drains the northern slope of the Annapurna mountains. It was only opened to rafting in 1996 and yields some of the most exciting class iv-v white water in Nepal. This river demands 100% Commitment from both crew and guide. It is totally different from the big volume rivers like the Sun Koshi and Karnali, the rapids are technical and require a very different approach. Big volume rivers need power and a good line, the Marsyangdi needs fast reactions from the crew to get through this pin ball machine river. The Marsyangdi quickly forges raft crews of complete strangers into true teams.
Located on the eastern side of the Annapurna circuit, the Marsyangdi River has long been famous for the beautiful views. With each twist and turn the steep sided gorge walls frame a new mountain backdrop.
