Teesta River Rafting Tours
The Teesta River, is the main drainage of Sikkim, Darjeeling, and Kalimpong Hill Region. It has been graded on the International scale at Grade 4. The icy cold waters of the rugged Teesta have a series of rapids with varying intensity, and character. It offers one of the finest rafting stretches. The Rangit, a tributary of the Teesta, has more turbulent waters. With its multi-dimensional rapids, it offers a challenge to more experienced rafters.
On both the rivers, the riverbanks have deep forests, with some patches of terraced cultivation, and small villages. Plenty of white sandy beaches exist, offering good campsites. Rapids of classification 2 to 4 are interspersed with placid floats, making rafting an enjoyable experience.
Our associates, DGHC Tourism provide International Class of equipment, and fully trained and licensed River Guides. We check out full safety requirements, before each rafting session, and our escort accompanies all our guests.
Rafting can be combined with trekking and other adventures. Tailor made trips with Overnight River beach camping also available.
