Bhutan Kayaking and Rafting Tour

Bhutan Kayaking and Rafting Tour.The Himalayan Rivers of Bhutan are the best known secrets to explore. Fed by the Eastern Himalayas, the six rivers (Wang Chhu, Sunkosh, Puna Tsang Chhu, MangdeChhu, KuriChhu and DangmeChhu and their tributaries) are used for kayaking and rafting. They cut through high valleys and low plains to meet up with the Brahmaputra River in India. The natural setting and the sheer variety of the rivers’ courses makes up for a unique opportunity to explore Bhutan’s beautiful wilderness. It is more than a teaser and an invitation to anyone interested in adventure travels. The rivers with high currents and depths reaching a maximum of about five meters are best for kayaking and rafting; at some places Rivers pass gently on and in others the rivers rage through loudly, dominating the environment. Although adventure sports and tourism are relatively recent introductions, it is gaining on in popularity.

The sport offers something for everyone: There is easy rafting for beginners and hair-raising runs for the veterans. Besides the rafts and the kayaks, Bhutanese agents also organize walking and trekking expeditions along the scenic river banks. The best time for rafting and kayaking is from March to April and November to December.

Safety

Bhutanese rafting and kayaking guides are well trained and will do everything to ensure that you enjoy the adventures minus the risks.

The rivers of Bhutan were first graded for water sports in 1997 by the experienced duo Gerry Mofatt and Peter Knowles at the invitation of the Royal Government, under the erstwhile Department of Tourism to survey potential routes.

They trained the first batch of Bhutanese river-guides and conducted surveys

Since then, other rivers have been surveyed including the PunatsangChhu, Manas and AmoChhu

TCB guidelines ensure that all operators use well maintained professional equipment and a reasonable guide-client ratio
