 The Seti River is another classic Nepal River coming from the Himalaya, winding its way through forested canyons and twisted rock and sandstone formations. This river travels through Magar villages from where the famous Gurkha soldiers hail.
The Seti Khola is a relaxing river with a lot of high action rapids. It offers great chances for swimming and wildlife spotting, making it highly suitable for families and first time rafters and Kayakers. It is one of the most beautiful and pristine rivers in Nepal. You can raft this river in combination with a trip to Chitwan or Pokhara.
RAFTING
While the river rages in the monsoon, for the rest of the year it’s a friendly safe and fun rafting trip. It’s a fantastic rafting trip for first timers, families and those who don’t have so much time. The river is easy but still provides some good thrills with its rapids.
