Just three hours away from Kathmandu, the Bhote Kosi is without a doubt the most exciting thing you can do in Nepal without risking a social disease, and quite possibly one of the best two-day rafting trips offered anywhere in the world. The Bhote is a very steep and very continuous mountain stream; a unique combination of exceptionally fun, challenging rapids without it ever getting past the point of recreation. It’s sort of like being flushed down a huge open-air toilet, but the tidy Bowl Man is your guide and there are no worries.
Emerald green fields are terraced high above the river on precipitous slopes, curious villagers lining suspension bridges are amazed as we plunge through cascading waves and chutes of foam. The beautiful location, thrilling, adrenalin charged white water makes this one of the favorite rivers we run.

I couldn’t speak more highly of Summit Treks and Adventures. I came to Nepal pretty
much clueless in regards to what I would be doing “adventure” wise, and where I would
be going. I was so fortunate to find Summit! Bikram and his crew were nothing but kind
and honest. I booked many trips with Bikram, from spur of the moment bus rides to
Pokhara and Chitwan, to a well planned trek in Everest region. All of which turned out
great. When I first came to Nepal, I knew Bikram as my “Travel Guy”. After 5 months
of countless cups of tea, one too many glasses of rum, and a few too many of his wife’s
delicious momos, I leave Nepal calling him a friend. Many of my fondest memories of
Nepal would not have happened without the help of Summit, and I am forever grateful
for their help and kind hearts. If you book with Summit Treks, I guarantee that you will
gain many great memories as well as a friend.

Three friends and I trekked from Lukla to Kalapathar over the course of 13 days. We were guided by Bachan Rai. Who throughout the journey was an excellent guide, who went beyond his duties to ensure that we had a fantastic time. Bachan was kind and caring especially when one of us suffered with altitude sickness. Without a doubt the three of us believe that we choose the best place and guides for our trek and would recommend them to anyone.
We have gained a friend for life and when we return we will be using Bachan and Summit Treks and Advantures for further trips.
