New Adventures from mid-September, 2009
Experience The Awesomeness Of An Aquaterra Adventures Trip!!
Dear Friends,
 
When planning the adventure trip of a lifetime, the most important decision you'll make is not where to go, but who to go with. Think about the stakes: weeks of your time, your hard earned money, even, potentially, your own safety. If an outfitter fails to deliver on the dark side of the moon, you don't get a do-over. An expert tour company, on the other hand, can give you access to remote lands, introduce you to those who live there, and make sure you not only see their world, but also experience it.
 
As we also prepare to move from the thick of our trans Himalayan season in Spiti and Ladakh, into an exciting post monsoon sojourn till the year end, we thank everyone who joined us for our treks, mountain climbs, safaris and river running trips.
 
This reach out surely goes out not a day too early, as we are sure there are many of you, who are looking at taking that elusive outdoor vacation, so here is your chance......and we now offer you a secure online payment gateway to make payments by credit card, so you can holiday now and pay over time.  
From the entire team at Aquaterra Adventures, we wish you the very best !!
 
Regards

Mahakali expedition, Nov 02-10, 2009   The Kali river forms the international border between India and Nepal in its upper reaches. A self-contained river journey down this river is one of the prime options in this part of the Himalaya. The river flows past terraced farms of Kumaoni and Nepali villages, Kalifresh water streams, sandy beaches, thick tropical jungles, plantations as we travel downstream through the terai belt negotiating exciting white water. Kali makes its final descent to the plains in the last day on theriver, beginning with the mighty Chooka rapid. Flowing past the terai hills after densely forested hillsides, this trip is an outdoor wilderness experience in a league of its own.  Click here for a visual preview.

You will run "Hairy Hari", "Kim Broken Oar" rapids, scout "Moing Madness" and see huge 20 foot plus breakers within arms reach.  You will spend days floating down the beautiful vastness of this river, the 'Son of Brahma", past tribal settlements, run down "Karko Killer" and brace yourself for the final drop at the "Pongging Punch".

 
Subansari 
THE LAST DESCENT
 
Upper Subansari Kayak Expedition and Raft Expeditions Dec 02, 2009 to Jan 02, 2010 - Book Now!  This beautiful river has been first run twice before by Indian army teams in 1994, only once from our slated starting point.   Our 2006 and 2008 trips have been the only departures on this river, and with a 116 m high hydel dam being built which would span the lower mountain mouth of this beautiful river by Sep 2010, this is the last time one can savor nature's blessing in visiting this amazing valley.  Lead by legendary river runner Peter Knowles, this trip straddles Christmas and New Years Eve, a thought for those who would truly like an adventure on the other side.
