Boating

Nepal provides some fine opportunities for boating. Pokhara's Phewa Lake is the most popular destination for those who love recreational boating.

At Phewa, one has a choice of pedal-driven boats, rowboats & sailboats. There is also a choice between fiber-body sailboats and wooden ones.

Seasons:

Boating in the Pokhara valley is fun throughout the year, barring the monsoon months. The best time is between October and February.

Down in the Terai, one can also go canoeing on the Narayani or Rapti rivers near Chitwan National Park. Canoes can be done on an hourly basis and the trip is rewarding in terms of both the ride as well as the wildlife that one encounters-gharials, muggers, water birds and the occasional dolphins.
