Shivpuri, near Rishikesh is an ideal river rafting location, where no previous rafting experience is necessary. An easy rafting trip covers about 10-kms of river running. Raft down through the heart of Laxman Jhula, and Geeta Bhawan to Muni-Ki-Reti and witness the numerous ashrams, yoga and meditation institutes and bathing Ghats with pilgrims taking a holy dip in the Ganges river water.

Shivpuri also presents an ideal way to explore the flora and fauna of the Himalayan region on foot too, taking a hiking tour to the nearby small villages.
