A one-day trek from the nearest road leads you to Karnali , Nepal 's largest and longest river. On the river, a series of challenging class IV to V rapids takes you through narrow canyons and dense forest full of diverse flora and fauna, finally leaving you close to Bardia National Park , where you can combine your rafting adventure with a safari trip and maybe spot some of the park's one-horned rhinos and elusive tiger.
