Best Season for Rafting
The peak tourism seasons in Nepal are spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November). At these times, the weather is best – pleasantly hot with very little rain.
Water levels are an important factor for white-water rafting, of course. In spring, water levels can be quite low, as, at this time, it’s been the longest since the heavy rains of the monsoon.
In autumn – after the monsoon season – water levels are at their highest. This can make for some exciting rapids – sometimes a bit
too exciting earlier in the season. By late November, the nights are quite cold for beach camping, so pack extra layers.
