Tibet Adventure Travel

Dates: July 16 - August 2

Cost: $3725

Paddle and float across the high Tibetan plateau,
experiencing Tibet as few tourists ever will.

After four days acclimitising and experiencing the ancient sites of Lhasa, we practice our paddling skills on the Tolung Chu before driving to the spectacular Nyenchen Thanglha range, source of the Reting Tsangpo.
 
The Reting is a wonderful four day river journey through the home of yaks and nomads to the famous Reting monastery and unique juniper forests.  We’ll share our campsites with nomads and have ample opportunity to experience their culture and customs.  The river starts out with easy grade 2 rapids and builds to grade 3 with occasional grade 4 rapids depending on the water levels.

We then drive to the sublime hotsprings at Tidrum Nunnery to soak our tired muscles before spending three days rafting the beautiful Drigung Chu.  We return to Lhasa with time for last minute shopping and a farewell dinner before flying back to Beijing and connecting with our international flight. This trip is suited to rafters with or without prior experience or kayakers with class 3/4 skills.
