Seti River Gorge : info and guided tour

Introduction to Seti River Gorge

Seti River Gorge is a natural gorge in Pokhara, Nepal, carved by the Seti River, which flows through the city before disappearing in places through narrow passages. Located near Lamachaur Rd, it is known for the contrast between the power of the waterway and the pale rock that lines its walls.

The site draws attention for its steep sections, where the river seems to plunge into a deep fissure in the middle of the urban landscape and nearby neighborhoods. In Pokhara, this gorge is one of the most notable natural spots for observing the effects of erosion and the distinctive geography of the valley.

Seti River Gorge is not a built monument, but a scenic site appreciated for its dramatic appearance and natural value. Visitors come mainly to see the Seti River in its narrow channel, the cliffs shaped by water, and the steep terrain that makes this place famous among visitors to Pokhara.
