This activity is worth a try. I remember when I did rafting for the first time [in Rishikesh itself]. I wasn’t sure to what I was about to get into but I was really clear with my thoughts that this was what I wanted to do in those moments.
And mind my words – this activity changed me as a person. Any word of emotion can’t do justice to what I felt back there. Everyone should definitely go rafting if not more but at least once in a lifetime.

The name of the sport reveals it all, one has to jump off a cliff in the waters. If one wishes then he or she can make an attempt to undertake this sporty activity without any equipment, once you do the same then this sport introduces us to a new term [Tombstoning].
When the above mentioned activity is performed with the help of a Parachute then it’s addressed as Base Jumping. Listen to what your heart is craving for and without a second opinion or a thought just give it a try (life doesn’t come easy).
For several minutes feel like a bird, free from every restriction and boundaries. Do compete with your fears [fear from a height or say fear of depth]. Let your inner strength introduce you to a magical event, which you wasn’t aware of.

Move like no one is watching you – it moreover feels like you are measuring the height and depth of the ground and the skies. This adventurous sport is also addressed as Rappel [a controlled drop off a vertical descent, such as a rack face with the help of a rope].
This technique is majorly adopted by mountaineers, climbers, cavers, canyoners etc. They drop off the cliffs or slopes when they are in a tougher situation.
While undertaking this activity one has to keep some basic factors in mind which directly affects the state of landing, such as – speed, space, safety, weight etc. You have to be really active and keen in order to save yourself from getting hurt.
Here is the list of pieces of equipment one should keep handy while Abseiling:

Some activities need no permission – equip yourself properly and get going.
Once in a row or one by bow – it’s all about your choice.
This adventurous sport is referred by various names Sypline, Zip Wire, Aerial runway, Aerial ropeslide, death slide, flying fox or foefie slide etc. This activity calls for a pulley suspended on a cable, made up of stainless steel and perfectly mounted on a slope.
It’s technically designed to enable a user propelled by gravity to traverse from the top to the bottom of the sloping cable by holding on to the freely moving pulley.
Back in days this technique was used for the transportation purpose in some of the mountainous countries for years. And later it turned into an adventurous sport – like a person can easily travel from one corner to another corner.
Become a Bat and allow yourself to experience something this crazy and YES make sure to not freak out.
Adventure camping is really fun – it’s like a treat for your soul. More adventure factor is added into this activity when you are out there trying to reach a point [the aimed destination] and in the midway you stop by to spend the night as you are a part of the tricky trekking trails.
In the scary silence of the night, surrounded by dense forest, no proper food to eat or no proper place to sleep; that’s the time when you truly understand the meaning and significance of your life.
Far Away from home – all you have is the shelter of a tent and some raw food to eat. It’s been years since I have gone camping but I remember one such event from the past.
Thought I properly placed myself in the tent still the weird sounds of the forest creatures made me feel a bit scared. The night was scary but the early morning sight was magical. Greenery all around and the freshness of the air was wondrous – it’s was like since my existence I was a part of some artificial world.
Camping is one of the best outdoor activities.
Compete with the speedy waves and on top of everything, strongly participate in an activity that involves you and your fears. Have the complete control of the oars, follow your instincts and push yourself ahead (feel the closeness with nature).
Kayaking is basically the use of a Kayak for moving across water. Kayak is really low to the water – Canoe like boat in which the paddler sits and makes himself or herself comfortable facing forward, legs in front using a double-bladed paddle in order to pull front-to-back on one side and then on the other in sequence.
Explore the beauty of water on your own, face your scariest fear and challenge your efforts.
Kayaking works really well when you are exploring any water cave destination. Ride slowly and witness the fine details. You get to do so because the water is really silent and calm in the cave like spots.

Hold the harness tightly and swing back and forth from a height of approximately 83 meters. This activity can easily make you remember your childhood days.
The level of risk isn’t the same but YES its one of the craziest activities I have undertaken so far. It was like everything was moving up and down as per my movement. It was a bit scary but fun driven too.
What are you waiting for, there wouldn’t be one standing to blow a green flag or something more of like a go-to symbol. Don’t just wish, live the moment in real.
Surround yourself with everything of your choice – make it simple and worthy.
After enjoying river rafting and yes a late-night bonfire, go back to sleep in the tent. In order to energize yourself for a new day if one wishes then he or she can enjoy a volleyball sport with their travelling companions and the new friends that one has made during the awesome trip to Rishikesh.
