Start your trip in Rishikesh by exploring some local sights. Visit the Triveni Ghat, a sacred bathing spot where pilgrims come to take a holy dip in the Ganges. Later, head to the Lakshman Jhula Suspension Bridge where you can see the Ganges flow underneath and watch the hustle-bustle of the local market. End the day by witnessing the evening aarti ceremony at the Parmarth Niketan Ashram.
Rishikesh is known for its adventure activities. Start your day with a thrilling rafting experience on the Ganges. Later, bungee jump from India's highest bungee platform or enjoy a flying fox ride at the same site in Mohanchatti. End the day by taking a dip in the natural hot water springs of the Kaudiyala Waterfall.
On Day 3, explore the spiritual side of Rishikesh and visit the Neer Garh Waterfall where there is a natural sulfur water spring that is said to have healing powers. Next, visit the Beatles Ashram where the legendary band, The Beatles, stayed in 1968 and took inspiration for many of their songs. Finally, head to the Tera Manzil Temple, a thirteen-storey temple which has different deities on every floor.
Take a day to relax and rejuvenate at some well-known Yoga centres in Rishikesh. Begin with an early morning Meditation Session at the Beatles Ashram followed by a Yoga Session at the Parmarth Niketan Ashram. After lunch, visit the Swarg Ashram and attend a Ganga Aarti Ceremony at Har Ki Pauri Ghat. End the day with a visit to the Rajaji National Park and spot some wildlife.
If you have more time, you can visit the Shivpuri Beach for adventure sports and the Trayambakeshwar Temple for evening aarti ceremony, both located 15-20 km away from Rishikesh. If you have less time, you can skip the Kaudiyala Waterfall and wildlife spotting at Rajaji National Park.
