The Mighty Brahmaputra Rafting Expedition

Day 1
Flight to Dibrugardh

Today is a day to relax after a long way to India and to recuperate before the long journey to the start of our expedition.

Dibrugardh to Yingkyong - 8 hour drive

Today marks the beginning of our grand expedition. We will witness the majestic Brahmaputra River for the first time and encounter its exhilarating rapids.

Day 3
Yinkyong to Tuting (our rafting starting point) - 8 hour drive

Today, we embark on a scenic journey through lush jungles and quaint local villages. Along the way, we’ll encounter numerous cascading waterfalls, marvel at the breathtaking depth of the Siang Gorge, and finally arrive at our starting point. As night falls, we’ll spend our first evening camping under the stars, immersed in the tranquil beauty of the wilderness. 

Day 4
Tuting to Pango (rafting)

We'll wake up early and visit the Tuting Monastery and start our river trip with some blessings.

Day 5
Pango to Cherring (rafting)

We start the day with the big Pango rapid to enter the Ninguing and Marmong gorges. These gorges are one of the most remote and impenetrable tropical rain forest gorges in the world.

Overnight camp at Cherring.

Day 6
Cherring to Alubadi (rafting)

We paddle our way out of the Marmong gorge. Our team is already accustomed to big waves and rapids; we conquer them with ease and a sense of playfulness. After a few exciting rapids we would enter a float section to ground our boats at Alubadi for the night. Overnight camp at Alubadi.

Day 7
Alubadi to Geku (rafting) 

After run the big Moying Madness rapid we would run several rapids going across the suspension bridge at Nubo. Further paddling through the one of the our favorite rapid Karko Killer, we would setup camp at the beautiful site of Geku. Overnight camp at Geku.

Day 8
Layover Day 

A relaxed day at Geku. Morning yoga and hike to the nearby Adi village, relaxing on a sandy white beach. Maybe a short rafting day to shift our camp to a lower campsite. 
A day of rest is essential to restore your energy and give your muscles a break, even if you don’t feel particularly fatigued. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to spend time alone with yourself and nature.

Day 9
Geku to Rotung (rafting)

This is a long float section passing across several Adi settlements and the confluence of Brahmaputra with the Siyom river. The river is gradually starting to calm, but we will still encounter exciting rapids and mesmerizing views. We setup camp at Rotung, where we take refreshing dip in the natural fresh water spring. Overnight camp at Rotung.

Day 10
Rotung to Ponging (rafting) 

Relaxed morning wakeup. Largely a float day with one last big rapid at Ponging. After the rapid, we’ll stop at a beach where we'll set up our midday camp for this expedition. We'll sit around the campfire, share our impressions of the river, and spend one last night under the stars on this trip. Overnight at stay at camp at Ponging.

Day 11
Ponging to Pasighat (rafting), Pasighat to Dibrugarh (driving)

Today, we will load our rafts one final time, set out onto the water, and paddle a short distance along the calm river to Pasighat. From there, after unloading the rafts, a vehicle will take us to Dibrugarh. Nice warm shower at a hotel in Dibrugarh, celebratory group dinner and relaxing evening tea. Stay at Dibrudarh.
