Trip Highlights
 Bhagirathi
is the main tributary of the Ganga. The river originates from the
fabled source of Ganga at Gaumukh. This exotic body of sparkling water
then flows down through the heart of the Himalayas cutting itself
a magnificent gorge. Our expedition takes you into this gorge which
is accessible only by the river. You exit the gorge at Devprayag at
the confluence of the Alaknanda and the Bhagirathi which meet together
to form the Ganga.

us to our first night halt in the gorge on a small beach.

A short but exciting run will take you through the virgin landscapes
of the Bhagirathi gorge from this day onwards you will be entering
the Gorge (about 67 Kms). The gorges are thickly forested and you
may come across wild animals like deer, pheasant, black bear etc.
You will not come across any villages as they are away from the riverbanks
and there will be no road support when you are in the gorges. Lunch
on the beach.

a short while we stop over at a beautiful beach camp.
Dinner and overnight in Camp.

A scenic float down till Kaudiyala. This is the toughest section,
especially for the paddlers as the water flows calmly and there are
few rapids on this section. 05 hrs. of rafting. However, the lack
of rapids is more than made of by the wilderness of the area. Lunch
enroute on the beach. The Ganga flows through a small gorge, where
no human being can reach except for the rafter. One can see wild animals,
even the elephants.
Dinner and overnight in tents.
