“The Uttarakhand Explorer Edition 2025, led by Captain Rohit and Rishi, was an unforgettable journey filled with adventure, breathtaking landscapes, and warm hospitality. From the awe-inspiring Himalayan Ranges at Chandrashila and Tungnath to the stunning mountains and valleys of Chopta, Binsar, and Corbett, every destination offered a unique charm. The safari in Jim Corbett was one of a experience, and the reiver rafting in Rishikesh added a dose of adrenaline to the trip. Starting the new calendar year 2026 with Ganga Aarti in Rishikesh was a serene and spiritual experience that perfectly capped off the adventure.
What truly set this trip apart was the effort and thoughtfulness of Captains Rohit and Rishi. Beyond the sightseeing, they kept the group engaged with a variety of group-based and individual games during the journey, ensuring there was never a dull moment. Their openness to feedback and willingness to accommodate ad-hoc requests made everyone feel comfortable and valued, creating a sense of home away from home.
This was my second Explorer Edition with JustWravel (after the Himachal Explorer Edition in 2024), and once again, it was a remarkable experience. Thank you, Rohit and Rishi, for your dedication and for giving us countless memories to cherish. Looking forward to more adventures with JustWravel in the future!”

“This was my first experience with JustWravel and I had the best time of our lives! I had gone for Uttarakhand Explorer edition. We had a great time trekking to Tugnath through the scenic view and stayed in one of the best properties in Binsar. Our trip leaders Namit and Saurav were always available to motivate and support us in any way they can. We would have not had so much without them. A big big thank you to the entire team! :)”

“The trip (Uttarakhand Explorer Edition) was good, the people were great. The guides, especially Saloni, had good local knowledge, made sure to include everybody and created memorable experiences or everyone. There was something to do for everybody (trekking, cafe hopping, shopping), Binsar Eco Camp was quite a good experience, and there was nothing to complain about with the food (for me).”

Uttarakhand is one of those rare places where every turn offers something different—snow-covered peaks, dense forests, spiritual towns, and quiet villages. The Uttarakhand Explorer Edition is built to give you a taste of all of it in one seamless journey. This 10 days-night itinerary covers Chopta, Binsar, Jim Corbett, Rishikesh, and Dehradun—each destination offering a distinct vibe.
The trip starts in Rishikesh, which is well-connected by road and rail, making it easy to reach from Delhi and other major cities. From there, the route takes you through alpine meadows, wildlife sanctuaries, riverside towns, and forest trails. It’s a mix of adventure, culture, and nature—ideal for travelers who want to see more than just one side of Uttarakhand.
Doing these places together makes sense. Chopta is known for its rustic charm and proximity to Tungnath, the highest Shiva temple in the world. Binsar, nestled inside a wildlife sanctuary, offers quiet sunsets and panoramic views from Zero Point. Jim Corbett brings in the thrill of spotting tigers and elephants on a morning safari, while Rishikesh adds rafting, local exploration, and spiritual energy. Dehradun wraps it up with hidden gems like Robber’s Cave.
Whether you’re hiking to Chandrashila Peak, sipping Buransh juice in the cold, or celebrating New Year’s Eve under the stars, this trip is designed to keep things fresh and balanced. It’s not just about ticking off destinations—it’s about experiencing Uttarakhand in full.
Traveling with JustWravel means you get the best of Uttarakhand without the planning stress.

Rishikesh is a town that blends spirituality, nature, and adventure in a way few places can. Whether you're starting your Rishikesh to Auli journey or winding down after exploring Auli to Chopta, this town offers plenty to explore. Begin with Triveni Ghat, where the Ganga Aarti at sunset is a must-see. The rhythmic chants, floating diyas, and spiritual energy make it a grounding experience before heading into the mountains.
Cross the iconic Ram Jhula and Laxman Jhula, suspension bridges that connect the town’s spiritual and commercial sides. On the other side, you’ll find bustling cafes, yoga centers, and local markets. Parmarth Niketan Ashram is a peaceful retreat offering yoga classes and spiritual discourses. If you're into nature, Neer Garh Waterfall is a short trek away and perfect for a refreshing dip.
For panoramic views, head to Kunjapuri Temple, especially at sunrise. It offers sweeping vistas of the Himalayan peaks—ideal if you're heading from Rishikesh to Auli and want a preview of the landscapes ahead. Beatles Ashram, officially known as Chaurasi Kutia, is another unique spot. Covered in graffiti and surrounded by forest, it’s a creative and meditative space.
Rishikesh is also a great base for your Auli and Chopta. Its connectivity via road and rail makes it easy to reach, and the town’s energy sets the tone for the adventure ahead. Whether you're traveling solo or with a group, Rishikesh offers a balanced mix of culture, calm, and thrill.

Rishikesh isn’t just a spiritual town—it’s also a great place to shop for meaningful souvenirs and practical travel gear. Start with the markets near Ram Jhula and Laxman Jhula, where you’ll find spiritual items like rudraksha beads, incense sticks, brass idols, and prayer flags. These are perfect keepsakes or gifts.
For travelers heading from Rishikesh to Auli, woolen shawls, gloves, and jackets are smart buys. The weather in Auli and Chopta can be chilly, especially during early mornings and treks. Many shops stock affordable trekking gear—backpacks, walking sticks, and thermal wear—that come in handy for the Auli to Chopta leg of the trip.
Ayurvedic products are another highlight. Locally sourced oils, herbal teas, and organic soaps are available in abundance. These wellness items reflect the town’s holistic vibe and are great for self-care during or after your trip. You’ll also find handmade jewelry, crystals, and Himalayan salt lamps that add a touch of the mountains to your home.
If you're into books, several stores near the ashrams sell titles on yoga, spirituality, and Himalayan travel. These are great reads for the road, especially if you're doing the Chopta Rishikesh circuit and want to dive deeper into the region’s culture.

Rishikesh is India’s go-to destination for adventure. Whether you're traveling solo or with a group, the town offers a wide range of activities that get your adrenaline pumping. White-water rafting on the Ganga is the most popular—there are multiple stretches, from beginner-friendly to Grade IV rapids. It’s a thrilling way to start your Rishikesh to Auli journey.
Bungee jumping at Mohan Chatti is India’s highest, with an 83-meter drop that’s not for the faint-hearted. Flying fox, giant swing, and cliff jumping are also available nearby. These activities are ideal for travelers who want to push their limits before heading into the serene landscapes of Auli and Chopta.
For nature-based adventure, try kayaking, zip-lining, or mountain biking. These are great for solo travelers and groups alike, especially those continuing to Auli to Chopta, where trekking and alpine exploration await. Rishikesh sets the tone for an active, immersive Himalayan experience.
Yoga and wellness retreats also offer a different kind of adventure—mental and spiritual. Many travelers combine physical thrill with inner calm, making Rishikesh a holistic starting point for the Auli Chopta Rishikesh circuit.

Rishikesh may be known for its iconic ghats and adventure sports, but it also hides a quieter, more soulful side that many travelers miss. If you're planning a Rishikesh to Auli trip or returning from Auli to Rishikesh, these offbeat spots offer a refreshing pause from the usual tourist trail.
Start with Patna Waterfall, tucked away on the Neelkanth road. Unlike the more popular Neer Garh, Patna is less crowded and surrounded by thick forest. A short hike leads you to cascading water and natural pools—perfect for a peaceful dip. Nearby, the Vashishta Cave is another hidden gem. This ancient meditation spot, located about 25 km from Rishikesh, is ideal for those seeking solitude. The cave is quiet, cool, and overlooks the Ganga, making it a serene stop before heading on your Auli Chopta tour package.
For nature lovers, Phool Chatti Ashram offers a tranquil escape. Located upstream from Laxman Jhula, it’s surrounded by forest and riverbanks, and often skipped by mainstream travelers. You can join a short yoga retreat or simply enjoy the calm.
Another lesser-known spot is Garud Chatti Waterfall, a multi-tiered cascade that’s best visited early in the morning. It’s a short trek from the main road and offers a raw, untouched vibe. If you're into panoramic views, Kunjapuri Devi Temple is a sunrise spot that’s still relatively underexplored. The temple sits atop a hill and offers sweeping views of the snow-capped Himalayas—especially magical if you're heading from Rishikesh to Auli and want a preview of the peaks ahead.
These hidden places in Rishikesh are perfect for travelers who want more than just rafting and yoga. They add depth to your itinerary and offer a quieter, more personal connection to the region—especially when paired with the scenic and spiritual journey to Auli and Chopta.
