Rishikesh is India's undisputed white-water rafting capital, offering exhilarating rapids on the Ganges ranging from gentle Grade I rollers to heart-pounding Grade IV cascades with names like 'The Wall,' 'Roller Coaster,' and 'Golf Course.' Three main stretches cater to different experience levels, from the family-friendly Brahmapuri run to the adrenaline-pumping Marine Drive stretch that covers 24 km of river. The turquoise Ganges, flanked by forested Himalayan foothills, makes the setting as spectacular as the rapids themselves. Most trips include cliff jumping and beach stops along the way.
What makes this place special
The most famous rapid on the Shivpuri stretch — a series of massive standing waves that toss the raft wildly, guaranteed to drench and thrill everyone aboard.
