Best Season

spring and autumn

The Sunkoshi river rises near Tibet and is joined by the Bhoti Kosi just downstream from Barbesi. Most rafting trips start at Dolaghat. The Sunkoshi flows eastwards in Nepal through the great valley between the Mahabharat Lekh range and the Himalayas. A nice thing about the Sunkoshi is that the general standard of the river gets progressively harder as you descend it so there is time to practice your skills on easy water before the more interesting, bigger and continuous rapids lower down the river.
