Life is about dreaming – trips to Nepal in 2023

nepal trip

Dreaming about seeing the white Himalayas? Why not come this year? We want to offer you some of the most beautiful and must “do’s” trips to Nepal in 2023.

When going to Nepal, you should consider the season and your expectation. One of the best times to visit Nepal are between March and mid-May or between October and November. During these times you won’t expect rain (most probably), it won’t be too hot and of course, you will be able to see the white Himalayas as the sky should be very clear. However, we also understand that sometimes you cannot choose the above-mentioned months so don’t worry. During the remaining months, you can also experience many beautiful trips in Nepal (just sometimes the weather may not be as perfect as you imagine due to the rain, temperature or other weather conditions).

Let’s check the trips to Nepal in 2023 we offer:

We will start with the combo trip propositions, followed by single adventures such as rafting, kayaking or trekking.

2 weeks trip multi-adventure trip

When: March- April, October – November on request or between 10-24 October 

Where: Kathmandu, River’s Edge Resort, Pokhara and all activities sides

It includes all must-dos while travelling in Nepal as sightseeing in Kathmandu and Pokhara, rafting/ kayaking on the Budhi Gandaki river, Mardi Himal trekking, and visits and activities in the Chitwan National Park. For those who want to come between 10-24 October, you will be also able to join us in celebration of our Dashain festival.

2 weeks of Multi-river kayaking expedition

Then as a warm-up, we will paddle for two days on the Trishuli river, following 1-day kayaking on Lower Seti. After a few days on the river, you will relax in Chitwan National Park for two days while doing jungle, safari, canoeing, and enjoying the cultural performance.

The next stop will depart for three days of rafting/ kayaking on the Budhi Gandaki river. The starting point is in Soti Khola, which is very close to the  Tibetan border, and you will see the view of Mt. Manasalu (the 8th highest peak in the world). After two days of a nice splash, we will end the rafting/kayaking at our River’s Edge resort and straight away departure to Pokhara. The last river we will paddle will be Upper Seti.

At last, you will enjoy one day of sightseeing in Pokhara, where you can also have extra activities like paragliding. On day 13, we will depart for Kathmandu, so you have time for your last shopping and the next day’s departure to your onward destination.

Trishuli river – 1-day rafting/ kayaking trip

When: daily

Where: River’s Edge Resort, Trishuli river

Highlights: The one-day rafting or kayaking on Trishuli is specially designed for everyone who doesn’t have lots of time but would like to try rafting in Nepal. The starting point is 72 km (approx. 3-4 hours) from Kathmandu at our River’s Edge Resort. This trip is an excellent break from the city noise or a stopover between Kathmandu and Pokhara (Nepal’s most popular tourist destinations). It offers relaxed rafting with some big rapids. We will provide you with a picnic-style lunch on a white sandy beach. After the day of adventure, you might choose to stay overnight at our riverside camp, extend your trip with some kayaking or canyoning or travel on to Kathmandu, Pokhara or Chitwan. It is open all year round, even during the monsoon!

Budhi Gandaki – 3 days of rafting or kayaking experience

When: March- April, October – November on request or few spots left between 22-24 October 

Where: River’s Edge Resort and Budhi Gandaki river

Highlights: Like every year, we promote our favourite river for your rafting trip. We leave for the expedition from our camp (or on request from Kathmandu). We will be passing through the beautiful traditional Nepalese villages during that day. The starting point is in Sothi Khola, which is very close to the Tibetan border and where you can see the view of Mt. Manasalu (the 8th highest peak in the world). During the second day, you enjoy full-day rafting with grand rapids. Last day we will enjoy half-day rafting with the finishing point at our camp. This rafting trip is unique and not touristic, and the water will make you tired and excited at the same time. Constant rapids will bust your adrenaline rush. Campfire and riverside camping will make you happy and fulfilled.

Lower Seti – 2 days of river rafting or kayaking

When: March- April, October – November on request

Where: Lower Set river

Village exploration

During this time you will be able to take part in the local events, be hosted by the village families, and explore the way of life of many families.
