Activities
River rafting

Links:

Places :

  1. Barapole river rafting base - Fast, not perfect for beginners
  1. Dubare river rafting base - Slower, better for beginners

Water will not be turbulent enough. So can skip this.

Cost : 1000 - 2000 per person

    1. Will need a jeep for this : ~1200

Not a trek I guess

Links :

Points of interest:
