Every time we want to experience thrill & explore more. But what could have been a safe place for friends to enjoy, visit, relax, and open ourselves to some adventure?
After a few hours of browsing the internet, me & my friend Pinky find the best place in India by choosing Rishikesh for an adventurous vacation. This beautiful destination calls for escapade and screams for the thrill, situated in the foothills of the mighty Himalayas. Being an adventure junkie or not, Rishikesh is a must on every traveller’s list. The holy town of Uttarakhand offering spiritual bliss and soothing chants welcome every visitor whole-heartedly.
With the beautiful flowing pictures of Rishikesh, with lovely crowded temples on one hand & on the other hand with youngsters in orange safety jackets bouncing on the waves in rafting boats, you could not imagine this beautiful city to be anything other than many temples, occupied with Sadhus and Bakht’s lined with the incredible views of twirling and twisting water rapids, creating white splashes in the far distance.
Not just all this, Rishikesh is a great spot for several wonderful activities, even for the atheists and hydrophobic. Life is a way of surprising at every turn in many ways, this get proven with my trip to Rishikesh with friends’ group. Initially, it was all set for a solo trip, even my reservations are done, but at the last minute, it all changed when surprisingly my friends also decided to join me for one of the most adventurous journeys of our lives.

Beyond above, there are some more exciting places to cover on Rishikesh Trip:
Once we all arrived Rishikesh, we were taken to our camps at camping sites, and after taking some delicious snacks, we leave for rafting. Watching white rapids my heart beat faster with excitement and fear. On reaching the rafting place, we will be provided with safety jackets to wear. It is a lifetime experience that will change you forever. The crowd that rushes to your head makes you wonder about the life miracle and how the adventure is the best thing that one can experience.
We always heard from our childhood that there is success beyond every fear, but on that day, we all felt it too. Before sitting on the boat, I was shivering with fear, and once we started to bounce in the water rapids, I can’t explain my happiness. As the rapid increase & water gets naughtier, all of us fell off the boat. I was panted for a breath, but once I could realize I pulled up again. Wow! It’s was an unforgettable experience in my life.
After rafting, we enjoy rock climbing and cliff jumping. I succeed to rock climbing but opted out of the jump. Cliff jumping is very interesting adventure sports that require one to jump from 30 feet high cliff that compels anyone to try it, but my acrophobia stopped me.
After that, we experience the Neel Garh Waterfall, situated amid the grandeur of the Himalayas and the lush greenery of the thick forests. I will advise personally to visit here after the monsoon due to the massive volume of water on the fall situated in naturally beautiful surroundings, where you can get coffee, tea, maggi and other dishes from the roadside stalls near the waterfall. Later, we returned to our camps and enjoyed many games like badminton, volleyball, music, and many more things by the campfire.

When it comes to spending time with your friends, nothing is awesome by having a trip with them, whether it’s a short break or a month-long. It is the most amazing experience of your life.
