Rafting from Kaudiyala to NIM Beach in Rishikesh is advertised as 35 km, however it is actually closer to 40 km. By river, it is around 28 kilometres long and takes about three and a half to four hours to finish. There is one grade IV rapid, The Wall, in this grade III, III+ rafting section. The Wall can occasionally be a flipper, tossing the raft over and plunging us into the water. Contrary to popular assumption, each raft is outfitted with a variety of safety equipment, professional guides, and life jackets, making drowning impossible. As a result, it is really more thrilling and enjoyable than dangerous. In addition to the thirty-minute drive to the launch site and the time needed to provide safety gear and instructions, the river flows for four to five hours, with roughly twelve rapids (diminished from three to five) with names like Daniel's Dip (III+), The Wall (IV), Three Blind Mice (III+), CrossFire (III), Roller Coaster (III), Golf Course (III+), and Club House (III).
It takes around an hour to get to the starting point, plus another half an hour for preparation and safety instruction.
Rishikesh, situated in the northern state of Uttarakhand, India, is one of the most popular destinations for river rafting, thanks to the Ganges River's thrilling rapids and stunning natural surroundings. Several rafting packages are available in Rishikesh, catering to different levels of experience and adventure.
