Marsyangdi
in the local dialect aptly describes one
of the best whitewater runs in the world.
Only recently opened for commercial
rafting (many rapids have not been named
yet), the Marshyangdi is one of the next
generations of rivers in Nepal, steeper
and with a much more continuous stretch of
rapids. The trek is stunning, with great
views of the Manaslu and the Annapurnas
ahead of you the entire time. The scenery
is breathtaking.
From Ngadi downstream to the end of the
trip at Bimalnagar it is solid whitewater.
Rapids are steep, technical, and
consecutive, making the Marshyangdi a
serious undertaking. For people looking
for a trip with a lot of demanding
whitewater and great mountain scenery, the
Marshyangdi is hard to beat. This is the
river that demands Respect.
