Arun River Rafting

The Arun River Rafting trip starts with 3 days trek through remote villages of Arun valley. Camping out in green forests with views of the stunning Himalayan peaks. On Arun River, the powerful current drives your raft or kayak through 4 days of magnificent white water action; at night you relax on fantastic beaches in dramatic valleys of Arun. In our view, the combination of trekking, amazing scenery, great rapids and remote location make the Arun itself best river running.
