History Of Kathmandu Valley
The legend that the Kathmandu Valley was formed from a vanished lake is in fact quite true. The uprising of the Himalaya trapped rivers draining south from Tibet, creating a vast lake that eventually burst its banks and drained away around 10,000 years ago.
As people settled the valley from the north and south, it
became the biggest clearinghouse on the trade route from India to Tibet. Himalayan missionaries and saints transferred Buddhism across the Himalaya into Tibet and centuries later migrating Tibeto-Burman tribes carried Buddhism back into Nepal, fusing Tantric Indian beliefs with the ancient Bön religion of Tibet. This has resulted in a fascinating hybrid culture, where Hindu and Buddhist beliefs jointly infuse Nepali life.
Historically, the Kathmandu Valley has been the homeland of the Newars, great traders and craftspeople, of mixed Indian and Tibeto-Burman origin. Much of the iconography, architecture and culture associated with Nepal today is actually based on Newari culture. For more on the customs and traditions of the Newari.
The first formal records of Newari history come from the Licchavi era (AD 400 to 750), but the golden age of the Newars came in the 17th century when the valley was dominated by three rival city-states – Kantipur (Kathmandu), Lalitpur (Patan) and Bhadgaon (Bhaktapur) – all competing to outshine each other with architectural brilliance. The reign of the Malla kings saw the construction of many of Nepal’s most iconic palaces, temples and monuments.
The unification of Nepal in 1768–69 by Prithvi Narayan Shah signalled the end of this three-way struggle for supremacy. Nepali, an Indo-European language spoken by the Khas of western Nepal, replaced Newari as the country’s language of administration and Kathmandu became the undisputed capital of the nation.

Eco Trek offers fun and exciting rafting trips on the best rivers in Nepal. The best time for rafting in Nepal is usually September to early December and March to June. This is when the weather is best and the water is the warmest.
Eco Trek runs two different types of river trips depending on how long you want your trip to be and what river you want to raft. The first type is a day trip on the river. We provide transportation to and from the river as well as a full day of rafting. This is the perfect trip for anyone who wants to get a feel for white water rafting or doesn’t have time for an overnight trip. Generally we run most of our day trips on the Trishuli and Bhote Koshi rivers.
Our other type of trip consists of several days of rafting while camping overnight next to the river. This gives you plenty of time to swim and relax on some of the white sand beaches on the river. We have porters to set up camp and a personal cook who will prepare safe and tasty meals. Camping trips require a minimum of 6 to 8 clients in a group it helps if you can find others who are interested in rafting. During the season we have many trips leaving several times a week so it isn’t hard to find a group. And like every Eco-Trek trip, we want to provide you with the vacation of a lifetime so tell us what you want. We can combine rafting with trekking or jungle adventures or both if you wish.

Rivers are rated for their difficulty on a scale of class 1 – 6.
A class 1 river has a slower moving current with little or no obstacles.
Class 2 & 3 rivers generally are fast moving with some obstacles and smaller to medium size rapids.
Class 4 rivers have long, continuous sections of white water and large waves which requires strong paddling and good teamwork in the boat.
Class 5 rivers have powerful prolonged sections of rapids and big holes, which requires very strong paddling and preferably some previous rafting experience.
Class 6 is considered to be almost impossible to run.
