Ride, Rope and Raft

Together with Ultimate Descents Nepal, we are leading the way in providing eco friendly and responsible tourism in the region.

Ride, Rope and Raft - this optimum adventure challenge is a reality buster, an escape from your everyday work environment that will make you feel you have truly been on a vacation.

Bike to the Borderlands along the old trade route, through some of Nepal's oldest cities including Bhaktapur, Nala and Dhulikhel. Ride on the Arniko Highway which runs alongside the Bhote Koshi river, and also visit the Tibetan frontier were Nepal meets Tibet at the Friendship bridge just 18kms beyond the Borderlands Eco Adventure Resort.

The trail twists and turns giving you gorgeous views of the countryside. After making your final descent from Kathmandu valley to the Borderlands river-side resort, enjoy your first beer that will be on us. Prepare yourself for the exciting days ahead when you will be rafting, trekking and
canyoning.

The Borderlands Adventure Centre is pleased to be the first organization in Nepal to introduce canyoning. Canyoning is a new adventure sport geared towards the ultimate sports enthusiast. It is an activity that involves abseiling, sliding, jumping, swimming, and climbing down waterfalls through steep canyon walls into deep pools. This unique combination of skills gives the intrepid canyoneer the freedom to explore some of the most ruggedly beautiful, yet forbidden places in the world. 

From sheer cliffs and slides to pounding waterfalls, you will experience all the joys of canyoning.  Apart from all the fun and games, and despite its apparent simplicity, this sport requires the guidance of an expert. Our professional guides are experienced canyoneers who feel that the practice of safe canyoning necessitates the use of proper gears, continual vigilance and a good knowledge of the aquatic environment.

The Bhote Koshi is one of Nepal’s premier adrenaline rivers with more vertical drops and white water than any other in the nation. A 2-day rafting program on the Bhote Koshi, with Nepal’s No. 1rafting company renowned for its safety & reputation, is like nothing else on offer in Nepal.
