The difficulty range begins with beginner-friendly climbs that require basic rappelling and swimming in milder water flows with shorter falls. These are suited for first-time canyoneers with a strong background in fitness.
Intermediate canyoning increases the challenge by adding more advanced rappelling techniques and longer climbs. These typically have many drops, swim portions, and moderate water velocity. You may find miniature slides and natural water chutes, which add to the excitement.
Advanced canyoning in Nepal becomes substantially more difficult. Routes of this class typically have high, exposed rappels and strong water currents, which can be deadly.

Why Nepal is perfect for Adventure canyoning?
Given the immense scale of the Himalayas and their massive mountains that extend from East to West, Nepal stands apart in terms of the morphology, aesthetics, and essential features of canyons, which include depth and verticality. Thus, canyoning has a great deal of potential to become a novel adventure tourist offering in Nepal. The Mid Mountain Range is home to a large number of canyons with varying grades, some of which are located higher up in the Himalayan foothills. They are outstanding, captivating, and demanding.
There is a variety of challenges due to the various topography, such as swimming through crystal-clear pools, sliding down natural chutes, and rappelling down waterfalls. While access to otherwise unreachable canyons is made possible by the dry season, Nepal’s monsoon season guarantees sufficient water flow.
