Tourist-level hotel and high-quality camping
The Karnali River Fishing Expedition – 6 Days, organized by Karnali Rafting & Adventure Pvt. Ltd., is a fast-track version of our full expedition packages.
This trip focuses on two high-impact fishing sessions in the Karnali’s most accessible yet productive stretches. You’ll still target the prized Golden Mahseer and Goonch Catfish, enjoy a scenic rafting journey, and camp riverside — but in a condensed schedule that works for anglers with only a few days to spare.
With catch-and-release ethics, professional guides, and rafting support, you’ll get a true taste of Karnali fishing without the long time commitment.
