The Arun River rafting (Grade 5) begins at Tumlingtar and ends at Chatara. Kartikeghat, the put-in point can be approached either by flight or by road. Trip requires a mini-trek either from the airstrip or from the bus stop. First day camp will be put up at Tumlingtar itself. The following day, after breakfast, trek to Kartikeghat starts at a gradual pace. The third day, a rapid is hit as soon as sailing starts. Next day is pretty smooth except for a few rapids graded between 5-6 class. The sixth day is pretty smooth as Arun River meets Sunkoshi. You can either drive back Chatara via Biratnagar or fly from Biratnagar to Kathmandu.
