Preparation
The trip begins and ends in Pokhara and runs twice a day, at 9 am and 1 pm. You will be provided with drinking water and a nice, hygienically prepared sandwich at the end of your trip. The bus ride will only take about half an hour from Pokhara to the starting point of Upper Seti. The whole procedure from departure to returning in Pokhara takes about 3 hours.
Rafting
Once at the river, everyone is fitted with a lifejacket and helmet. Then the trip leader and safety kayaker give an extensive safety briefing, explaining how to paddle and what to do if you fall out from the raft. Rafting in Upper Seti is much more than simply forward and backward paddling. You use your whole body in an attempt to avoid the rocks and move through fast rapids.
Our trip starts at Bamboo Bridge. For the next 1.5 hour there will be non-stop rapids, varying from Class III+ to IV. The adrenaline rises with each rapid. You barely have time to take in the beautiful nature along the way, the great mountain views, a beautiful gorge and crystal clear water. Our trip ends at the Dam, where you end with a nice lunch.
