River Rafting in Rishikesh
Rishikesh is known as the Yoga Capital, but these days, it’s not just about yoga and spirituality. Adventure sports are becoming just as popular! Rafting, camping, bungee jumping—there’s a lot happening here. But rafting is getting the most attention, as more and more people come to Rishikesh just to enjoy white-water rafting.
With the powerful and holy Ganga flowing through, it’s the perfect spot for rafting. The rapids here range from Grade 1 to Grade 4, making it both safe and thrilling. It’s actually one of the best places for rafting in the world!
The best time to go rafting is from September to June. In July and August, the water level is quite high, so it’s not the best time. For the best experience, book with River Hawk Adventure! We’ve been doing this for years and use only quality equipment. You’ll have a fun and safe time with us—guaranteed!
