Dear Baral
This was the first time I booked directly through the WEB , and I thought it's a little risky, especially when I had to send my money to Katmandu and I wend to Delhi .
An interaction programme was organized on June 28, 2005 with twenty Thai Tour Operators who came here for FAM tour to share their experiences during their stay in Nepal .
His Majesty King Gyanendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev inaugurated the Promote Nepal-2005 exhibition amid a special ceremony at the City Centre in Doha, Qatar, on June 14, 2005.
The Bhote Kosi - the
name implies that this river has its origin in Bhot
or Tibet. It has upper sections of grade 5 and 6. Most
of the commercially rafted section is from much lower
down and has an overall grade of 4 with a couple or
so harder rapids that warrant a 4+ or 5-.
It is so near from Kathmandu that you can be on the
river the same day as you leave Kathmandu. In fact,
this is the only river with such gradients and so near
from Kathmandu.
The bus journey from Kathamndu takes 3-4 hours and rises up out of the valley
and drops down into the Sun kosi valley near Dolalghat (the Sun Kosi put-in).
From here the valley is followed upstream and is still called the Sun Kosi.
Close to Bahrabise the Sun Kosi turns east and the Bhote Kosi goes north. Close
to the 95km marker the river can be accessed a run. Further upstream the grades
increase and they say that if you don't get scared, just keep going upstream
and eventually you will!
When you reach the put in point, you will be amazed to see that the crews have
already prepared lunch for you. Then you start the adventures of the day. The
day is over at a campsite where the crews will have already reached with the
gears and all stuff. May be the dinner is also ready.
The following day, after breakfast, again you are on the thrilling rapids. In
the afternoon, you will reach the put out point and you will proceed to Kathmandu.
