kes, Eskimo rolls, Eskimo rescues and the art of reading whitewater. The priority is safety, not forgetting however the joys of a more intimate relationship with the magical Himalayan Whitewaters! Our instructors are some of the best whitewater paddlers and kayak instructors in the world with a strong history of running rivers worldwide. The clinics are supported by state of the art rafting equipment, which carries all personal gear, camping and other supplies down the river to our campsites. The Seti River is one of the most beautiful and pristine rivers in the Himalayas. With dense remote jungle, exquisite sandy beaches and class II – III whitewater runs, perfect for beginner kayakers. Itinerary

There is a pre-departure briefing in our Pokhara office the evening before the expedition at 6 PM. At the meeting you have a chance to meet the instructors and support group, and we can answer any final queries, give out personal gear bags and collect money for the beer kitty. Afterwards we will probably head to one of our local favorites for a relaxed meal. Day 1

After breakfast we head to the boathouse in Pokhara to be kited with your means of transportation for the next 4 days; that being your kayak and all personal kayaking gear. Once everyone is kited and fitted, we head to Fewa Lake in Pokhara and spend the day familiarizing ourselves with being in a kayak, covering the basic paddle strokes and with an aim to perfecting the perfect still Eskimo roll. We break for lunch and continue our water acrobatics well into the late afternoon. We head back to the boathouse to change into dry clothes, set up our bedding for the night on the big compound and enjoy some real home cooking'. Day 2 – 4

We wake the next morning for an early breakfast before boarding our chartered bus. It is a 2-hour drive from Pokhara to our put in below Damauli. From here until take out, we live and breathe and sleep kayaking. We wake early each morning to get a good start on the day and with the combination of riverside theoretical and whitewater practical instruction to hone those much needed skills, you'll be looking for that perfect play hole to show off your surfing techniques before long! On average we paddle 5 – 6 hours each day. You'll quickly begin to feel muscles you never knew existed before. We camp out each night on river beaches, and after enjoying a hearty meal there is time to relax by the camp fire with a hot rum punch exchanging, and often exaggerating, whitewater tales and experiences. Day 4

Although progress and skill depends on the individual, by day 4 most clients have a reliable whitewater roll and easily make their way through the class III rapids on this last day. We kayak to the take out point at G*i Ghat, load the bus and relax on the return journey to Pokhara. After a much needed hot shower and change of clothes, the group usually gets together to enjoy an end of the trip meal at one of the popular restaurants in Pokhara.
