DAY 1: Arrive at shivpuri
You need to arrive at Bull's Retreat, Shivpuri, Rishikesh by 1:00 PM after which you are our guest for the days to follow. A quick scrumptious lunch and we head out for the first rafting session of your adventure filled weekend in Rishikesh. What follows is a super 2-hour ride on the river tackling some of Ganga's most-loved rapids.

​In this section you're going to encounter some of the smaller but exciting rapids on the Ganga. First comes Initiation Cash Flow and then Black Money, after which we'll take a short tea break at Gullar from where all children below 12 will have to get off and will be sent back to Bull's Retreat. The big ones follow now - Three Blind Mice, Cross Fire and Return To Sender - quirky names yes, but once you raft through them, you won't forget them!

The rafting trip ends at Shivpuri and you return to Bull's Retreat for a welcome cup of hot tea (or cups of them if you feel like it!) and in the winters a blazing bonfire later in the evening! You can chill, play some basketball or badminton or simply lie on a hammock and wait for the stars to begin their spectacular show! 

Dinner and overnight at Bull's Retreat. Your weekend filled with adventure activities in Rishikesh has begun! 
DAY 2: MOUNTAIN BIKING AND BUNGY JUMPING
​A morning walk into the pine forest behind the MHE Beach Camp - part of the Rajaji national park, is the perfect way to start Day 2 of your adventure filled weekend getaway in Rishikesh. Back for breakfast and a quick briefing from your instructors and you're off on our Firefox mountain bikes. Destination: the Bungy jumping point near Mohan Chatti at Rishikesh. It should take you around 1.5 hours to make the 40 KM distance - just enough to break a sweat! This is where you take that 83 Meter leap of faith! Bungy Jumping in Rishikesh? Check!

​You can choose to bike back to camp or we will arrange for cars to take you back. Dinner and a warm bonfire awaits as rewards of a day well spent!
​Day 3: RAFT THE BIG ONES TODAY!
Your second day of rafting in Rishkesh happens today! This time we tackle some of the bigger rapids on the Ganga - including Roller Coaster and Golf Course. We return in time for lunch at Bull's Retreat, a quick wash and change and you're ready to leave for the city lights you had left behind. How's that for all the adventure and experiences in Rishikesh for one weekend?!
