Adventure Sports In Rishikesh For Every Brave Soul

Posted on February 24, 2021March 31, 2021

8 ADVENTURE SPORTS IN RISHIKESH THAT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND

Rishikesh – the Yoga Capital of the World; is now also the Adventure Capital of India. There is a wide spectrum of Adventure sports in Rishikesh.

Located in the foothills of the Himalayas, Rishikesh has its own mythological importance. For ages, people have been visiting this place in search of peace and higher consciousness. However, with the advent of modernization, this city has evolved into an adventure destination for the youth of India.

Talking about adventure sports in Rishikesh, the first thing that pops up in mind is River Rafting, but there are many more adventure options that this holy city can offer you.

Air Safari

Flying like a bird, that’s an idea humans have always been fascinated by. It became a reality with the invention of the Airplane. However, to get a raw experience of flying, you must experience Paragliding where you are exposed to the open sky like a bird. Rishikesh offers you a unique and unforgettable experience in the form of Air Safari. You can choose from a variety of packages that cater to specific requirements in terms of air, time and budget.

Paintball

Almost everyone wants to join the Army at some point in their early age. While not everyone can make it to the Army, one can definitely experience the thrill of an armed encounter in the Paintball Arena. A Paintball player eliminates the opponent from the game by hitting them with dye-filled gelatin paintball, shot from a Paintball Gun powered by compressed air. Wearing protective gear is a mandate in this game, without which one can get serious injuries.

Rock Climbing

Rock Climbing, one of the most challenging adventure sports in Rishikesh. This sport tests your physical and mental strength to the extreme. However, beginners can do opt for an easier climbing route. This is a great sport for someone who wants to overcome Acrophobia – the fear of heights. There are many adventure camps in Rishikesh that organize Rock Climbing expeditions of all grades (easy to difficult).            

River Rafting

River Rafting is the cynosure of all the adventure sports in Rishikesh. This sport has played a key role in the evolution of Rishikesh as an adventure hub. The flow of Ganges in Rishikesh has got some gigantic rapids that would tempt to shoot adrenaline through your veins. The splashing waves of the Ganges and the thrills of its rapidness would give you an unforgettable experience of river rafting in Rishikesh.

Kayaking

Kayaking is still in its nascent stage and is slowly gaining its position amongst all the adventure sports in Rishikesh. It is a great sport that requires tremendous judgment skills and great reflexes to balance the Kayak in high rapids. To start off, one needs adequate training from professionals. You can choose from a wide range of training programs based on your budget and time you want to invest in this sport. 

Hot Air Ballooning

One of the recent additions to the list of adventure sports in Rishikesh is Air Ballooning. It is a comfortable and yet super exciting activity that gives you a 360-degree view of the city and the surrounding Himalayan range.

Rappelling

Rappelling is another adventure sport in Rishikesh that you can try your hands on. To Rappel, basically means a controlled descent from a cliff using a rope. To add on to the thrill, you can experience this sport at Neer Garh Waterfalls where you will have to push your limits to withstand the waterfall while rappelling through it.

Bungee Jumping

Bungee Jumping is one sport that would give chills to the bravest of souls. It is now becoming the most sought-after adventure sport in Rishikesh. Jumping Heights is the only adventure company that offers Bungee Jumping in Rishikesh. They have India’s highest platform which is 273 feet (approx. 22 stories) high. The cost for this adventure sport is a little on the higher side but it’s definitely worth the money and courage.    

Check out the below YouTube video to have you a virtual glimpse of how it feels to experience these Adventure Sports in Rishikesh. We are sure some of the shots will give goosebumps and challenge you to undertake a few of these sports on your next trip to Rishikesh. Your first encounter will be the beginning of an addiction that is going to make you alive more and more. 

There is also a beautiful saying – “It is only in Adventure that some people succeed in knowing themselves.”

So go out and explore the lifetime experiences that await you on the bank of mother Ganges in Rishikesh. We are sure, they will make you come closer to yourself and spark a realization that every moment in your life is an adventure in itself.

Valley of Flowers National Park trek is an Indian national park, located in North Chamoli, in the state of Uttarakhand and is known for its meadows of endemic alpine flowers and the variety of flora. This richly diverse area is also home to rare and endangered animals, including the Asiatic black bear,[1] snow leopard,[1] musk deer,[1] brown bear, red fox,[1] and blue sheep. Birds found in the park include Himalayan monal pheasant and other high altitude birds.[2] At 3352 to 3658 meters above sea level, the gentle landscape of the Valley of Flowers National Park complements the rugged mountain wilderness of Nanda Devi National Park to the east.[3] Together, they encompass a unique transition zone between the mountain ranges of the Zanskar and Great Himalaya.

July and August, during monsoon, is the best time to do the trek..

Malana Village Story

Last month we went on a bike trip to Malana village where we got a chance to visit this mysterious village. Which is famous for its world's best Hashish. As we entered the village we found a board written that we are not allowed to touch their temples and the people. If we do, we will have to give Rs.3500 fine. And we found a local who shared the complete story of the village why this village people don't want us to touch them. Local of that village didn't know that the camera was on and he shared the complete story with me. So please use the Headphones for better Understanding why this village is so mysterious.

MALANA VILLAGE (2018)

WHAT PEOPLE OF MALANA THINK ABOUT TOURISTS.

Locals will ask you if you wanna buy the cream.

This is the complete vlog of my road trip to Kasol, Manikaran and Malana village with my friend Saurabh. We had been planning for this trip for so long and were finally able to complete it.

Day 1: The whole day was spent in bike riding. We reached Kasol by 6 pm but faced some issues while finding the rooms in Kasol because they were too expensive. We managed to rent a room in a hotel which cost us Rs.1000.

Day 2. Day 2 started with the blessings at Manikaran Gurudwara and we had Prasad as our Breakfast. Then we headed further just to get some views which we didn't get. After riding a few Kilometres we decided to head back towards Malana Village. We Reached Malana around 5 and took a room in a guest house. Around 5: 30 we started our trek to Malana village and met with the locals asking not to touch any of the structure, also met with a person asking Cream Chaheye? 

Day 3.  Woke up around 9 which was not good at all if you are travelling to some beautiful places like this. And around 10 we headed towards Kasol to have our breakfast and from there we headed back home.

Chandrashila Winter trek is the most amazing trek I have ever had in winters and one of the Panchkedar which I was doing for the third time. This beautiful place is located in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand. 
I completed Chopta trek in the month of January with my friend Nitesh. From the starting till the end this trip gave us the most amazing travelling experience of all time.

we were just 10 km away from the Chopta village when we encountered a large amount of snow on the road which really made it difficult to drive on. We worked as a team to defeat our fears and stick to our plan. 

And we made it.

Dayara Bugyal Trek - My Unplanned Expedition (2017)

Dayara Bugyal trek is one of the most beautiful treks in Uttarakhand. It can be a perfect trek for beginners. As per the villagers, this place gets covered in snow in winters which attract skiing lovers

We didn't plan for Dayara Bugyal trek and were up to Saptrishi Kund trek which was a very less popular trek. But due to Landslide, we were unable to do it and we zeroed out Dayara Bugyal trek.
