The TamaKoshi River has its upper reaches high in the Tibetan Himalayas. Astonishing Rolwaling, Charang, Gopi, Adheri, Khare, Jhyaku, Jugu, Gumu, Singati, Tineku, Dholti, Maren, Milti, Khimti are some of the major tributaries of the river.

Tamakoshi river rafting is generally referred to raft savvy people who have adequate acquaintance with technicalities of sturdy water. An exciting and elegant white water challenge, away from main trekking routes yet easily accessible from Kathmandu. Rafting and kayaking in this river is however considered as a dangerous one.
