RIVER RAFTING >> TEESTA
The main river in the north- eastern state of Sikkim, the Teesta originates at Cho- Lhamu Lake and gushes down the mountains, creating foaming white rapids which are litrerally tailor made for kayaking or rafting. Although we get very few people to do white water rafting here as compared to other place like Garhwal and Ladakh but this is a good stretch for white water rafting and kayaking Most of the runis either Grade III or IV The shorts run on Teesta is the run between Makha and Rongpo, a two and half hour trip. The longer and more grueling runs on the river are the stretches between Dikchu and Teesta Bridge ; Dikchu and Kali Johra ( in West Bengal ) a run of almost five and between Bordang and Melli.
