Drigung Chu - 3 day trip

Class III / IV whitewater
Approx. 55km and 2 days on the water

The Drigung Chu is situated in an exquisite alpine valley about 3 hours from Lhasa . On the first day we drive to Terdom nunnery and soak in the sublime hotsprings. We also visit Drigung Til Monastery. On the second day we begin rafting and for two days we paddle the stunningly beautiful Drigung Chu. Continuous class III rapids are interspersed with incredible granite gorges and challenging class IV rapids. To undertake this trip you should be able to swim and you must be fit and fairly well acclimatized. This run is quite technical so you will be expected to paddle often.
