The sacred River Ganges in the light of the moon, a tranquil calm settled over busy city streets, the glow of lamps within the temples... Explore a different side of Rishikesh on this evening walking tour of the city.

Itinerary

The walking tour of Rishikesh begins at nightfall at the Parmarth Niketan Ashram, the largest ashram in the city, where students reside with their spiritual teachers to learn Hindu religion and culture, as well as practice yoga and meditation.

Participants will stroll along the banks of the Ganges, passing the Gita Bhawan Temple and the Swarg Ashram. The illumination of houses and temples contributes to a peaceful atmosphere during this mystical experience.

Next, the group will head towards the ancient Maharani Sri Vidyawati Kuor temple, stopping at a viewpoint to enjoy a panoramic view of Rishikesh.

The final stop will be the hanging bridge of Lakshman Jhula, a popular meeting point for locals and an iconic city landmark.

For those interested in experiencing the Ganga Aarti ceremony every evening at Parmath Niketan Ashram, the Ganga Aarti Spiritual Walking Tour is available for booking.
