Our car driver knows one rafting group and haulted the car there. We did a 6 km rafting trip on the Sutlaj .Rafting on the river was a thrilling experience as I am doing this for the first time in my life.The total rafting time takes around 1 hour for the 6 kms(ideally it will take only 30-45 minutes, we had a 15 minutes break in between). 12 km rafting is also available, but not suitable for children. The water was freezing cold (we visited during first week of April).The river is relatively calm with mild rapids so kids could enjoy too.Most of the rafts need an optimum number of people before they can leave. So if you are a family of 3-4 you would either need to wait for 8 more folks to join or hire a private raft exclusively for you which will cost more.
