Phewa Tal (Fewa Lake)

Reviewed By Crowhollow - Morrison, United States

We enjoyed our boat ride and hike up to the World Peace Pagoda so much that we arranged an early morning paddle the next day with the same boat oarsman, Gautam, at the location across from the Glacier Hotel. He is very good at spotting birds and monkeys and took us to the best places to see them. It was very peaceful and scenic to be on the lake in the morning while there were few other boaters and there were lots of birds to see.

Seti Gandaki (Seti River)

Reviewed By JoJo_and_Martin - Lancing, United Kingdom

I have been going to Nepal for a few years now and every year I am drawn back to the 1/2 day Upper Seti rafting trip with Paddle Nepal. It is one of the most exciting rivers I have rafted with continuous and challanging rapids. I have used Pokhara based company Paddle Nepal for this trip as I found them to be highly skilled with international qualifications and a high regard to safety (something that is easily overlooked in Nepal). Highly recommended this trip to anyone looking for some adventure especially those who are short on time.
