Rishikesh

Along with nearby Dehradun and Haridwar, Rishikesh is a useful gateway to the Uttarakhand Himalayas. The Northern Char Dham Yatra (Four Shrines Sacred Journey) ideally begins from Rishikesh. The nearby Shivpuri, 12 km away, is the centre for many adventure sports, not to be confused with its namesake Shivpuri.
