About Tamur River Rafting
The Tamur is found in the remote far eastern Nepal. It is considered one of Nepal’s most exciting and remote rivers. Its waters have origins from Kanchenjunga, world’s 3rd highest peak. In fact, Kanchenjunga was far a long time considered to be the planet’s highest peak until an 1842 survey changed that. The mountain lies on the border of Nepal with Sikkim, India and is considered sacred to the local people. Floating along the Tamur’s waters in Nepal will be the experience of a lifetime.
Tamur rafting is a multi-adventure experience. After a long vehicle journey, the excitement begins with a four-day trek in magnificent terrain that has seen relatively few trekkers. This hiking part of the journey will be unforgettable. Following the trekking, with breathtaking views, we put in and let the river take us through charming valleys, exciting rapids, relaxing currents, and inviting beaches.
Of the many choices we offer for river running from east to west, the Tamur River is one of the most thrilling. The waters plunge down from the snowy mountains and through green foothills as they make their way to the fertile plains. The Tamur is not easily accessed which makes it even more of a special experience undertaken by few. Drifting down the Tamur River can also be the perfect way to unwind and refresh after a long trek or to simply escape life on the solid ground for a while. Nepal’s diverse landscape offers something spectacular at every bend in the Tamur River.
A great length of the Tamur is available for rafting, and we have many options for a rafting adventure, up to a week and longer and from easy stretches to thrilling chutes and drops. The Tamur can be rafted at any time of the year and even in the monsoon when the extra flow provides more excitement.
The river adventure is broken up by slow-paced rest stops on sandy beaches for meals and a resort camp under the starry skies.
Throughout the excitement, we follow the highest safety standards and have your well-being as our top concern. Our journeys are safe and enjoyable. Our crew of trained specialists has years of experience guiding on this river and we provide the best gear and rafts that are always accompanied by safety kayakers looking out for you.
