| Overview
70 KM Rafting Expedition in Rishikesh:
Our 2-day rafting trip starts from Devprayag and ends at (NIM Beach) Rishikesh, which covers about 70 km of exciting and calm rivers. The entire expedition is planned to experience the river and its natural environment in a very exclusive way. The trip has all the ingredients of relaxed camping with nature lovers as well as adrenaline-pumping action while tackling wild rapids with one of the most experienced teams in the country. The rapids you will encounter would be grade 3 to 4. During our rafting trip, we passed Devprayag, which is one of the five holy prayers (confluences) of the Alaknanda River and holds great significance for Hindu devotees. It is here that the Bhagirathi and Alaknanda rivers converge to form the Ganga or Ganges. Our tours are run in an ecological way and according to the principle of leaving no traces. The rafting expedition would be supported by experienced safety kayakers/river guides and the team would be equipped with quality equipment of international standards. The camping experience would be complete with a kitchen and dining room providing quality and nutritious freshly prepared meals.
