This two-day adventure package offers an exhilarating combination of bungee jumping and river rafting, providing a perfect blend of adrenaline and natural beauty. Whether you’re seeking the thrill of free-falling or the excitement of navigating river rapids, this tour promises an unforgettable experience in the heart of Nepal.
This tour combines two adrenaline-pumping activities: bungee jumping off one of the highest bungee jumps in the world and rafting on the Bhote Koshi River, known for its challenging rapids. It’s designed for thrill-seekers looking to maximize their adventure in a single day or over a couple of days.
The bungee jumping takes place at the Last Resort, located approximately 100 kilometers (about 62 miles) east of Kathmandu, near the Nepal-Tibet border. The Bhote Koshi River, known for its powerful rapids, runs through the same region.
The bungee jump at the Last Resort is 160 meters (around 525 feet) high, making it one of the highest bungee jumps in the world. It is situated above a deep gorge with the Bhote Koshi River flowing below, offering a dramatic and breathtaking jump experience.
The best time for both bungee jumping and Bhote Koshi River rafting is during the dry seasons, from September to November and March to May. During these periods, the weather is favorable, and water levels are ideal for rafting. The monsoon season (June to August) can make the river more challenging for rafting, while winter (December to February) can be quite cold, especially for bungee jumping.
The Last Resort and Bhote Koshi River are accessible by road from Kathmandu. The journey takes approximately 3 to 4 hours. Transportation is typically included in the tour package, providing pickup and drop-off from Kathmandu.
For both activities, wear comfortable clothing that allows for freedom of movement. Quick-dry clothes and sturdy shoes are recommended for rafting. For bungee jumping, wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing; the jump will be done in a harness provided by the operators. Additionally, bring a change of clothes, a towel, sunscreen, and a waterproof bag for your belongings.
For bungee jumping, participants must be in good health, with no significant medical conditions or recent surgeries. There is usually a weight limit (generally between 40 to 100 kilograms or 88 to 220 pounds), so check with the operator beforehand. For rafting, no prior experience is needed, but participants should be comfortable with moderate physical activity.
The package typically includes:
