Kayak Bootcamp at New Camp in Nepal

Kayak Bootcamp at Charaudi, Nepal
This year our kayak bootcamp is held at our private beach in Charaudi on the Trisuli River in Nepal...
And we love it!

Why this location is great -- For beginning kayakers, this is a perfect location because we have some flat water in front of the beach for learning to roll, but there is a small rapid just up river where we can walk to for practice before hitting bigger waves further down the river.

The Trisuli has class II-IV rapids, and our students confidently paddle down stream on days 2 and 3 to see what Nepal's most popular river has to offer.  There are great views of local villages, farms, rock formations, and rice paddies.   Kayaking in Nepal is one of the best ways to see our country and enjoy our culture in remote areas.  If you haven't kayaked before, join our kayak bootcamp upon arrival in Nepal, and then head out to the Sun Koshi, Seti or Lower Bhote Koshi for some Himalayan white water paddling!

Getting ready for Kayaking Trips starting Sep 2009!




We are getting all are gear together and are really excited about the upcoming season.  Hardcore is going to be the first to offer these extreme kayak expeditions.  We got the idea because, so many people who were doing the rafting were looking for a bigger challenge.  Plus, the kayak groups give you the freedom to explore a little more.  There is no hand-holding here; you must already be a kayaker to take our trips.  

The rapids are amazing and the camping is awesome.   We're just waiting to see if the real monsoon will come to know what kind of water we will have in September.  

Right now Ramesh is scouting some new canyons along the Trisuli River, and we want to be the first to offer a Canyoning & Rafting combo in Nepal.  He found some amazing waterfalls with pools at the bottom that our hardcore adventurers will love.  

He thinks for season 2 (Spring), he wants to show people how to hunt for their own food in the jungle.  Based on some of the things he's eaten... anyone who can handle the same is SUPER HARDCORE!  He's nuts! That's why we love him.
