There is something about the mountains that
have always intrigued me. The mystical charm, picturesque sights and infinite
lush green slopes are captivating. Among the bewildered mountains of
Uttarakhand, from bustling cities to serene hamlets, everything is blessed with
a tranquil environment that most parts of India lack. This charismatic beauty
attracts tourists from different parts of the country who want to escape the
commotion of the hoi polloi of their everyday life.
However, during my last visit, while
staying in an exquisite riverside cottage
in Uttarakhand, I realised that it not only offers a pristine form of
nature that replenishes your mind but is also the adventure hub of India.
Mentioned below are 3 adventure activities for the adventurous souls amidst the
mighty mountain ranges:-
Paragliding
Have you ever witnessed an aerial view of
the mountains? It’s awe-inspiring. You will experience an adrenaline rush while
flying like a bird in the open blue sky. The enthralling adventure sport will
rejuvenate your mind and replenish you with excitement. There are multiple
spots across Uttarakhand that are renowned for paragliding. So, if adventures
make you feel alive, paragliding should score a position in your bucket list.
River
Rafting
Wade into the viciousness of the stream
with just a life jacket and your swimming skills, and experience the
enthralling nature of the sport. River rafting is truly an indispensable
experience. Uttarakhand homes many small and big rivers that made it one of the
prime destinations in India for river rafting. The strong current of these
rivers attracts the zeal adventurers who love fast-paced adventures. However, if
you are afraid of the water, river rafting is certainly not meant for you.
Trekking
Walk through the narrow trails of the
mountains and explore the unexplored mountain ranges of Uttarakhand. Trekking
through the lush green forest, amidst the snow-capped mountains allows you to experience
the true beauty of nature. Hidden in the lap of the mountain ranges, lie
several paths that take you to the unknown lands of the mountains. Take the
road less travelled by and explore the secrets that lurk within the valleys of
the mountain.
Uttarakhand is home to many more adventures
like bungee jumping, kayaking, rock climbing, etc. So, if you are longing for
that excitement in your life, stay at one of the cottages in Uttarakhand and try these adventurous sports to
get high on life.
