Jeevan Acharya from Lalitpur Ekantakuna, who came to Bardia to see tigers, was as sad as he was not able to go on a jungle safari, but he was surprised to enjoy nature by rafting in Karnali, another 'product' of Bardia. "I don't know where the fear with the flow of the river was lost to the joy of rafting," he said.

rafting, it is a distinct pleasure to enjoy the natural environment with the melodious sound of the river. Rafting in a peaceful environment adds to the curiosity and curiosity to see wildlife. Sometimes rhinoceros, elephants and even tigers are seen while rafting. "Due to the rain, there is a good flow in the river now," said ornithologist Ram Shahi, "that's why it's a wonderful adventure." The birds seen while rafting, the picturesque natural environment and the beauty are equally captivating.' 

Rafting is practiced here from Chisapani Karnali bridge to Hattisar (about 20 km), Karnali bridge to Kothiaghat (about 35 km) and Karnali bridge to Sattighat Tikapur (about 25 km). A raft accommodates a group of 8 to 10 people. There is a package of 5 to 6 thousand rupees. Ramji Thapa, Director of Ganda Camp Resort Bardia said that it has the facility of pick up, drop, launch and break frost. 

``Rafting is enjoyed by local and foreign tourists,'' he said, ``Dolphins, camels, reptiles and birds can be seen in the water while rafting.''

"Sitting on the white sand feels like relaxing on the beach," he said, "Rafting has opened another possibility for tourism in Bardia."

Rafts are used to navigate the river along with the flow of water. Bal Bahadur Rana, director of Wild Life Encounter River Rafting located at Thakurdwara in Bardia, said that the experience of going through the rapids while rafting in the river is very exciting. "More foreign tourists also enjoy fishing in the river," he said, "They also go camping." Now rafting has increased on a daily basis. This has increased tourist attraction in Bardia.' 

Both domestic and foreign tourists are now enjoying here . Rana, the operator, said that all safety measures have been taken while rafting. Veteran journalist Yuvraj Shrestha said that another important part of rafting in the Karnali River is that you can see the wonderful landscape of the plains, hills and mountains. "When you sit on a boat and enjoy the speed of the river waves, fear disappears in an instant," he said. That is why local and foreign tourists will be attracted to rafting in the Karnali river, he said. Rafting is also a fun adventure sport . So this sport has been flourishing as a business along with adventure on the river lately.
