Lower Arun

A powerful and famous river. Little traveled, it offers a shorter and easier alternative to the Sun Koshi, with big rapids of moderate difficulty.

The Arun is respected as one of the most powerful and mighty rivers of Nepal. The whole area is relatively unspoiled, and sees only a few trekking groups, mainly taking the Eastern approach to Everest.

Rafting:
We recommend a trip on the Arun only with a trek from Everest or on your way back from Makalu, as the transport cost would make it unnecessary expensive.
