The Tamur River and its tributaries drain the snows of Kanchenjunga, the third highest peak in the world. The valley itself is awe-inspiringly beautiful and unspoiled with relatively few villages and little agriculture. Its slopes are well wooded, there are beautiful white beaches for camping and plentiful wildlife to be seen.

The Sun Koshi river rises near Tibet and flows eastward through Nepal to join the Ganges in India. It forms the watershed for most of eastern Nepal, gathering strength from tributaries draining the highest mountains in the World.

For the vast majority of the river there are no roads or towns, just the occasional picturesque village and friendly shouts of ‘Namaste’ from the bank. All along the river are beautiful, large white sandy beaches for camping, and the lower section is heavily forested with troops of monkeys and an abundance of birdlife.
