The Bheri River is so remote that it remains relatively an unexplored.The Bheri river rises in Dolpo district. Two large tributaries, the Thuli
(meaning big) and Sani (Small!) join at Ramnaghat to form the mainBheri River. A remote and easy river, beautiful scenery, good fishing,
unspoilt villages, interesting local peoples. Blue water, good white beaches and fine campsites. For a Bheri River trip you have options between taking
a one and half an hour flight to Nepalgunj from Kathmandu or a 627 km.long journey by road. The first section of the river is quite tough with
twists and turns, creating many exiting narrow gorge section of the river with vertical cliff of 200-300 feet on either side. The gorge is
interspersed with open valleys where there exist small villages. The trip can becontinued with a jungle tour in the Bardiya Wildlife Reserve.
