One of the best day hikes in Uttarakhand, the trail to Tungnath Mandir (3680m) and Chandrashila Peak (4000m) features a sacred Panch Kedar temple and a stunning Himalayan panorama.
The trail starts at Chopta, a small village with no electricity, which is found on the winding road between Chamoli (south of Joshimath) and Kund (south of Gaurikund). A well-paved path switchback 3.5km uphill, gaining 750m in elevation, to Tungnath, the highest Shiva temple in the world. A dirt trail continues 1.5km further to the top of Chandrashila.
From the summit, the Garhwali and Kumaoni Himalaya stretch out before you, with awesome vistas of major mountains including Nanda Devi, Trishul, and the Kedarnath group. Start early before the clouds move in, or head up in the afternoon, stay at one of the spartan guest houses around Tungnath and hit Chandrashila for sunrise.
For years, Shivpuri, 19km from Rishikesh, was just a quiet place with white sandy banks and pebble beaches. Two decades ago, some adventurists discovered the thrill of riding the rapids of the icy Ganga here. The rest is history. Add to the river experience the surrounding forests and web of hiking trails – not to mention sunbathing and bonfire nights and you have a destination that many returns to repeatedly.
Rafting down the white-water rapids is not as scary as it sounds. The rubber raft usually seats eight people, and you are safer than you can imagine with life jackets, crash helmets, and very experienced guides to accompany you. Rapids range from 1 to 5 in the degree of difficulty, but as enthusiasts of the sport like to say – no two raft rides are ever the same.
