The Himalayas, stretching 3,200 kilometers along India’s northern frontiers, cradle numerous rivers which drain them all year round. This abundance of mountain rivers
makes India a world class whitewater destination with plenty of first-descent and exploratory possibilities.

We offer you the complete white water wilderness experience with trips ranging from a few hours to a few days expeditioning‚ down some of the premier Himalayan rivers. Short day trips are run from our river beach camp on the Ganga river, SILVER SANDS, with

deluxe tented accommodation and the luxuries of a fixed camp. Multi-day expeditions move down the river with all the equipment required loaded onto the rafts and different camps pitched every evening. We also offer perfectly blended rafting-cum-trekking‚ trips for those who don’t want to miss out on the local culture and people. We customize trips to suit your special interest and time schedule. For people interested in kayaking, we can offer help with information, transport and equipment. In the hills of the state of Uttar Pradesh, the Ganga‚ and its tributaries make up for the most popular white water in India.

The Kali river forming the Indo-Nepalese international boundary makes an exhilarating mix of long float trips, great angling and class III/IV white water, during October to May.

In Sikkim, the Teesta and Rangit rivers, besides day rafting trips, promise great kayaking potential, also from October to April. Darjeeling, in West Bengal can be the base for day trips on the Teesta as well.

The river Brahmaputra, one of the greatest rivers in the world, offers a 10 day expedition through dense rain forests, tribal settlements and some great white water.
