After an hour or so you will feel like a pro as you gradually disembark, exhilarated and drenched. The non-hotel awaits you with hot beverages.

Neergarh Waterfalls

Rock Climbing

Rishikesh is a preferred destination for rock climbing in India. Every year, thousands of people come here to enjoy the adventure of rock climbing. Our team can tell you of the lesser-known places where you don’t find crowds.

Rajaji National Park

One of the largest national parks in North India, the Rajaji National Park is situated along the Indo-Gangetic plain. This is the home to tigers, exotic birds, leopards, Asiatic elephants, bears, jackals, barking deer, chital, nilgai and a variety of ape species. If you are an avid bird watcher or a wildlife enthusiast, you are bound to get mesmerised and return with wonderful memories as migratory birds from all over the world flock to this place.

Hikes

One can look forward to an adventurous journey across the several soft treks here, and simultaneously enjoy the surrounding greenery, the chirping birds and the beautiful views from the mountain top. From Neemrana’s Glasshouse on The Ganges to Sirasu is a scenic hike along both banks of the river, with the forest on one side and the river on the other. The best time to see wild jungle fowls, peacocks, langurs and deer is early morning just after sunrise. You will walk across two suspension bridges that hang over the rapids of the river. The local communities have been using these trails for generations. Now it's your turn!

Temple Visits

The Ganges is so special – not just the physical location of Rishikesh where the river stops cascading and flows like a sheet of glass onto the plains, but because of the great spiritual value it has attained over the centuries. Descending from its source, holy men with matted hair, bask their ash-smeared bodies here in the sun, giving this pilgrimage the name Rishikesh. A few of the prominent temples located here are Bharat Temple and the Neelkanth Temple. You can cross the river via the Lakshman Jhula and visit the neighbouring temples and ashrams for evening Arti, and also take a dip into the holy Ganges.
