Cliff Jumping is one of the most
exciting activities offered during River rafting in Rishikesh.
There is a cliff located in the lower part of the rafting trip
in the Brahmpuri Stretch just 2 kms before Laxman Jhula. The
raft is parked on the banks and the team members are motivated
to jump from the cliff.
Cliff jumping in Rishikesh
If you ever go for River rafting in Rishikesh you must try cliff
jumping activity. The Cliff Jumping is safe and one does not
need to know swimming as it is done wearing a life jacket. The
life jacket does not allow you to drown and the river guide
ensures that you come back on the raft safely afterwards.
It is indeed an exciting and adventurous experience to jump into
the flowing river from the cliff that high. Very often people
who dare to jump from the cliff once go back up again to jump
couple of more times.
Height of Cliff Jump in Rishikesh
The river current of the Ganges under the Cliff is mild. The
height of the jump varies according to the water level of the
Ganges, which is controlled by the Tehri Dam and varies
gradually through the day. The average height of the jump is
around 20 feets. However, around the end of season (June) the
height is about 10 feets only.
No matter which season you do it, Cliff Jumping in Rishikesh
will definitely boost your confidence and remove fear of heights
and water. Cliff Jumping is also used as part of our Corporate
Team-Building Programs for the same reasons. In fact, all our
River Rafting Packages in Rishikesh include Cliff Jumping.
Riding the wave: Body surfing
Won't it be a nice experience if you get to surf without using a
surf board? It would certainly be great isn't it, to just let
the current guide you while you take on the waves. What is more
interesting is that you get to manoeuvre your body like a
skilful and playful seal while you body surf riding the waves.
All you need is to streamline your body and you are free to surf
as long as you desire. Although only a pair of swim fins is
needed for body surfing, some other gears that you can carry
with you , includes hand paddles, wave blades, hand guns and the
likes. These will help you gain more speed and will also help
you with tackle the waves in a better manner. However, you can
lose the fins if you want to, but keeping it on will make it
more fun and easy for you.
If you have some time to kill then body surfing is an ideal bet
for you. However, before you enter the icy waters, it would be
better to have an introductory session with the masters of the
game, the professional surfers. In case of body surfing, it is
crucial that you are aware of the surface of the water you
intend to surf on. The professionals will teach you all the
tricks you need to learn like curling your body into a ball,
diving back down giving in to the waves and many others. With
proper guidance and training, body surfing in Rishikesh can be a
lot more fun than you can anticipate.
Eco-tourism could be broadly defined as making
as little environmental impact as possible and helping to
sustain the indigenous populace, thereby encouraging the
preservation of wildlife and habitats when visiting a place.
Responsible Eco-tourism includes programs that minimize the
adverse effects of traditional tourism on the natural
environment and enhance the cultural integrity of local people.
Whether it's about a nature camp or organizing trekking trips
towards the un-spoilt and inaccessible regions, one should
always keep in mind not to create any mishap or disturbance in
the life cycle of nature. Historical, biological and cultural
conservation, preservation, sustainable development etc. are
some of the fields closely related to Eco-Tourism.
