Quick answer
It is based at Trishuli River (Prithvi Highway). Use your current location for navigation; as a planning reference, it is about 77 km from Kathmandu Durbar Square. Plan for 30 hours of activity time, with 2 hr 30 min of total journey time from that reference point where route data is available, and moderate difficulty.
Extend the Trishuli run into a two-day expedition — raft the upper gorge section Day 1, camp on a pristine sandy beach beside the river, and continue downstream through the lower canyon to Narayanghat on Day 2. The overnight camp under stars with cooking fires beside the Trishuli is one of the most affordable 'expedition' experiences in Nepal.
