Alaknanda River Rafting

The Alaknanda River is the 2nd major river of the Ganga besides the Bhagirathi. It drains through the large mountains of Garhwal and has many mighty tributaries including the Nandakini, Pindar and Mandakini. A self contained Alaknanda river rafting trip is a great introduction to river rafting trip. Separately from some impressive scenery it provides you the excitement of running one of the most technical and challenging white water in the Indian Himalaya’s that has grade 4 rapids to 5 rapids with loads of exciting activity to offer.

Our river rafting expedition begins at Chamoli. The stretch between the Chamoli and Rudraprayag, is a classic river run, negotiate over 75 to 80 grade 3 rapids to 4 rapids, including the grade 5 rapids ‘Hillary Fall’ named after Sir Edmund Hillary’s up-stream jet boat journey called “Ocean to Sky”, many decades ago.
