River Rafting
Uttarakhand, known for its vibrant rivers such as the Ganga, Yamuna, Alaknanda, Tons, Kali, and Kosi, is a prime destination for white water rafting. The state offers a thrilling experience for everyone, from novices to experienced rafters, and even non-swimmers. Rishikesh, a popular spot for rafting, is known for its beautiful scenery and exciting rapids. For those seeking strong rapids, stretches along the Alaknanda, Dhauliganga, and Kali rivers are the best options. Beginners, on the other hand, may prefer to start with the milder stretches from Barkot to Lakhamandal and Damta to Yamuna Bridge near Mussoorie.
The ideal season for rafting in Uttarakhand is between September and June, providing ample opportunity for adventure seekers to enjoy the experience throughout most of the year. In addition to rafting, visitors can also try cliff jumping for an added adrenaline rush and a chance to fully embrace the region's natural beauty.
