Alaknanda River is the India second main tributary
of the Ganga River besides the Bhagirathi River. It comes form the big
mountains of Garhwal Himalayas and has plentiful mighty tributaries
including the Nandakini, Pindar and Mandakini. A self contained journey is a
great introduction to trip river rafting. Apart from some stunning landscape

challenging white water in the Indian Himalaya’s that has grade 4 –
5 thrill rapids with loads of adventure to propose.

grade 3 to 4+ rapids, including the grade 5 ‘Hillary Fall’ named
after Sir Edmund Hillary’s upstream jet boat expedition know as “Ocean
to Sky”, many decades before.
