Summary

Marsyandi means "Ranging River” in the local dialect, a fitting description for this kind of whitewater.

One of the best class 4 kayaking rivers in the world- continuous, exhilarating whitewater with magnificent mountain backdrops. Recommended for expert kayakers and rafters. Note that a new dam is being built at Phaliya Sanghu - this will ruin the Marsyandi for kayaking and rafting- so run it whilst you can.
