2 Rivers: Kongpo Chu and Draksum Chu
Class II, III and IV whitewater.
Approx. 77 km + 30km
The Kongpo and Draksum Chu are world-class rivers with exciting rapids
and stunning mountain scenery. The Kongpo region is quite different from the
rest of Tibet with forested mountains and emerald green rivers. On the Kongpo
Chu, we run 77 km of very exciting rapids. The highlight of the trip is the Gyazhing
Gorge, which has 3km of exhilarating class III and IV rapids. On the Draksum
Chu we run approx 30km of whitewater. You definitely have to be a confident swimmer
to challenge this run and you must be fit and fairly well acclimatized. This
is an exciting run and you will be expected to paddle hard particularly on day
two.
