The Mesmeric Waterfall of Rishikesh
The Neergarh Waterfalls are a hidden gem seated amid the mountain valleys. It makes for a perfect retreat for nature lovers and adventure enthusiasts. Its located only five km from the Lakshman Jhula and represents a collection of three waterfalls that cascade down rocky cliffs into blue pools.
Suggested Duration - 1-2 hours
The two-tiered waterfall is famous among hikers and photographers. There is no direct way to reach the waterfall, travellers will have to hike their way up. Covering a track of 1.5km, the trail takes you through the deluge of lush foliage of coniferous vegetation along with a view of two rustic bridges and white streams and the deep valley! It can take up to an hour to reach the waterfall. Indulge in other activities like yoga, meditation or picnicking along the waterfall.
The joy of travel comes in exploring new things. Planting your feet somewhere you’ve never been before brings with it the rush of discovery and the joy of pushing back on the boundaries of your world.
But when one does arrive at that fresh frontier, there are ways better than others to begin your journey of discovery. Follow these steps and see the world with a new light.
• Discover a new city through a food tour. Food tour’s are the easiest way to take a tour, learn about the local delicacies, and the best of all, get great tips that aren’t just “local” tips for tourists, but sometimes, lessons for a lifetime too
• Use Public Transportation. When you are in a new city, you can possibly see places and people that you wouldn’t normally see when simply walking to the places that checks your list. Some buses or rails take you to parts of the city you wouldn’t get to see otherwise. Whilst using public transportation, just ensure that you are following the local norms and do remember to watch the locals!
• Find a local festival. Go beyond what other tourists might do while visiting a place. Look for the unique things you would want to do. Use social media or the local tourism website to find out what’s going on locally. You may have to move out of the center of the city to do some of the less popular but more unique things, so just keep that in mind!
