Family Explorer 3 days / 2 nights
A special adventure package that the whole family can enjoy!
Rafting on our family section of the river, gorge walking in to a near by waterfall and try out kayaking in our pool.
DAY 1: Rafting
Arrival to RBC in the morning, settle into your accommodation and be served a light lunch. We start the rafting with a safety brief and then set out on the family section of the Trisuli River. We paddle through the dramatic valley, enjoy some fun waves and perhaps spot the bright blue Kingfisher or moneys on the river banks.
We return to the camp in time for tea and coffee. Spend the evening enjoying the beautiful river beach, join us for a traditional Nepali dinner of organic, locally sourced foods and fall asleep to the sounds of crickets and the river below.
DAY 2: Gorge Walking
Tea & coffee will be available when you wake up and you are welcome to join our team for stretching and simple meditation on the beach.
After breakfast we prepare and brief you before setting out towards the gorge with our guide. We follow the small trail through fields and into the quiet canyon, enjoying the beautiful surroundings and learning about butterflies and plants. We play in the little stream in the canyon, where we can swim under small water falls and slide off the rocks into natural pools.
Returning to camp for lunch, you can enjoy the afternoon cooling down in our pool, playing volleyball or build a sand castle on the beach!
A good dinner and perhaps some star gazing before you fall sound sleep.
DAY 3: Kayaking
After another beautiful morning and a healthy breakfast, it's time to introduce you to kayaking. The whole family can try to paddle a kayak in the pool. For parents and older children who want to learn more we can go into the the calm eddie just outside the camp. Here we cover the basics, how to get in and out of the boat, paddling and rescue techniques - you can also try the Eskimo-roll.
After lunch and maybe a swim in the river before you head towards your next destination.
Extra days / nights at RBC can be added to the package.
