White
water rafting is a relatively new adventure sport in the
region. The sport was introduced in Darjeeling
hills in the year 1991. Since then the sport has come a long
way and has gained tremendous popularity.
As a result, several private organisations
along with DGHC tourism have set up rafting facilities. On
an international scale the icy cold waters of the rugged Tista
is graded at IV. With a series of rapids with varying intensity
and character, Tista extends a challenging invitation to the
enthusiasts.
The turbulent waters of the Tista with its
multidimensional rapids provide rafters with a variation meant
for professionals. But there are several straights which can
be enjoyed by the greenhorn. The spectacular scenery confronting
a rafter while one snakes down the mountain rivers make this
experience a must for all lovers of adventure.
Safety is the key to the success of an adventure
endeavor and the services extended by our well trained staff
assures you this. Moreover, the rafting equipment used by
is of the highest quality available in the world. The extremely
high standard infrastructure is supplemented by mouthwatering
cuisine of the hills served with a smile. |
