Tamur River Expedition Overview
The Tamur River expedition of 13 days has to be one of the best raft trips in Nepal. The river and its tributaries drain Mt. Kanchanjunga (8,586 m), the third-highest mountain in the world. This river opened in 1998 for commercial rafting; since then, it has won the affection of many rafting/kayaking enthusiasts worldwide. Tamur is not readily available; hence, you must trek for about four days to enjoy this river. However, you will not be disappointed; the trek is equally exciting. You will be treading on narrow dirt tracks that join one typical village to another. Travelers can view the glory of Mt. Kanchanjunga from the routes.
The Tamur River has 120 rapids within its rafting length of 131 kilometers. The initial parts of Tamur are tricky. This river is very challenging, and if you are looking for a massive adrenaline surge, Tamur is the river for you!
