The Lohit River Kayaking Expedition

The Lohit river comes into India at the border with China near India's eastern most inhabited tip, at a place called Kibithu. It is a medium volume continuous Class 4+/5 river in its upper alpine reaches and becomes pool drop towards the latter end of the trip. This trip is an exploratory Kayaking Expedition supported either by raft / cataraft or land crews wherever possible.

One can look forward to rapids and paddle through some amazing white-water to discover a land that is distant and secluded from and is undisturbed by civilization. The expedition on the Lohit often requires support by land crews. The best seasons for the expeditions are March, November, December.

The expedition starts with a train journey that takes one from New Delhi to Dibrugarh where from 7 hours drive is anticipated to reach the town of Tezu. On the 5th day kayaking begins which continues through the week.
