River Rafting Trips
An easy rafting tripcovers about 10-kms of river
running. First drive to Brahmpuri, and then take
a boat to ride the currents of the water of the
Ganges. Raft down through the heart of Laxman
Jhula, and Geet Bhawan to Muni-Ki-Reti and
witness the numerous ashrams, yoga and
meditation institutes and bathing Ghats with
pilgrims taking a holy dip in the Ganges river
water. Rafting certainly presents a better way
to witness Rishikesh - the town of temples,
ashrams and the Ghats.
River Rafting In Shivpuri
Situated near Rishikesh is another ideal river
rafting site of Shivpuri, where there camping
facilities are present along the Ganges River.
The camps are well equipped with two single beds
with mattresses, complete bedding, towels, etc.
From the camp base one can opt for half-day
rafting trip, for which no previous rafting
experience is necessary.
Beside the camping facilities, tourists are also
provided with Expert guides and top quality
equipment and rafting gear. Shivpuri presents an
ideal way to explore the flora and fauna of the
Himalayan region on foot too, taking a hiking
tour to the nearby small villages. As the area
is close to Rajaji National Park, one can see a
good variety of resident and migratory birds.
