Rafting In Gilgit River

Rafting in northern Pakistan excites the imagination. Here the mountains are one
of the most rugged and isolated place on earth. Only recently explored and
mapped. Strategically close to the heart of Central Asia is the hub of the world's
greatest mountain chains. The Karakoram, the Himalayas, the Hindukush and
Pamirs. In no part of the world is there such a large number of high mountains in
such a confined, space i.e five peaks over 8000 meters and 108 higher 7000 meters
in a radius of 188 kms. Hidden amid this net work of snow capped peaks and
striated glaciers and narrow mountain valleys awe inspiring river system have
prompted experts in the field to describe Pakistan as white water sports most
exciting frontier in the world. The Swat river, Gilgit river, Hunza river, Kunar
river, Neelam river, Chitral river and Indus river. All provide excellent stretches
for white water canoeing and kayakinc.
