Overview

The Seti River is a picturesque and significant tributary of the Karnali River system, meandering through the scenic landscapes of western Nepal. Originating from the pristine snowfields and glaciers around the majestic twin peaks of Api and Nampa, this river flows through a region near the tri-junction of Nepal, India (Kumaon, Uttarakhand), and China (Tibet). As it gracefully winds its way southward, the Seti River invites adventurers to embark on a captivating journey through its gentle currents and lush surroundings.

Discover the Allure of Seti River Rafting

The Seti River is renowned for its breathtaking scenery and offers a unique blend of tranquility and adventure. For the majority of the year, its calm waters beckon families, bird watchers, nature lovers, and dreamers to bask in its serene beauty. However, during the monsoon season, the river transforms into an exhilarating challenge for experienced rafters and kayakers, with swollen rapids that provide an adrenaline-pumping experience.

A Glimpse into the Rich Cultural Tapestry

As you embark on your Seti River rafting expedition, you’ll journey through lush vegetation that harks back to the vast forests that once blanketed Nepal’s middle hills. The area is home to the Magar community, renowned for their generations of service in the Gurkha forces. You’ll have the opportunity to camp beneath the vibrant village of Saranghat, nestled amidst the picturesque middle hills.
