Bheri River Rafting Corridor

The Bheri River Rafting Corridor (भेरी नदी जलयात्रा तथा साहसिक करिडोर), traversing the rugged southern canyons of Surkhet District across Bheriganga, Gurbhakot, and Barahatal municipalities, is celebrated internationally as one of Nepal's finest multi-day white-water river adventures and sport angling destinations. Originating high in the glaciated ridges of the Dhaulagiri and Kanjiroba massifs, the Bheri River carves through untamed subtropical valleys, towering limestone bluffs, pristine sal forests, and expansive white sand beaches before uniting with the Karnali River at Kuneghat. The Surkhet section features thrilling Class III and Class IV rapids interspersed with gentle, glassy turquoise pools ideal for beginner and experienced rafters, kayakers, and wilderness campers alike. In addition to exhilarating white-water navigation, the Bheri River is globally acclaimed as a prime habitat for the endangered Golden Mahseer (Tor putitora), attracting catch-and-release sport anglers from around the world. Multi-day river expeditions offer secluded riverside wilderness camping under starlit skies, canyon birdwatching (including endangered river lapwings and fish eagles), and an intimate look at the indigenous fishing lifestyles of the Raji and Majhi river communities.
