The overnight rafting trip started on 6th - 7th of April at Trishuli River. The rafting was organized for orphan kids of OCCED NEPAL. OCCED Nepal is an organization for community, orphan kids and environment est. on 1999. So, we thought this would be a great opportunity for kids of OCCED Nepal. We just want all those orphans to have fun.

So we started the Rafting from Maleku around 1:00 pm and raft about 13km to west. Though the scale of the river was around 2 and -3 there was some best rapids such as Suprise, landslide, monsoon etc. For about 4 to 5 hours rafting we end up our first camp at royal beach camp around eventing. We camped on the beach and the special activites of the camping was with Barbeque. All the Kids prepared the barbeque which was amazing. Every kids has their sleeping bag and mattress to wear over the night.
