Top Attractions in Rishikesh

Everything in Rishikesh is arranged around the Ganga, including these five places.

  • Triveni Ghat: Busy in the evenings, when the aarti draws a large gathering down to the steps.
  • Parmarth Niketan: A riverside ashram with open visitor areas and its own evening ceremony.
  • Beatles Ashram: The abandoned meditation huts at Chaurasi Kutia, now covered in murals.
  • Bharat Mandir: One of the oldest temples in town, tucked into the older lanes away from the tourist stretch.
  • Trayambakeshwar Temple: A multi storey temple near Lakshman Jhula, with shrines on every floor.

Local Access: Bridge access across the river changes from time to time. Check before planning both banks in one day.

Aarti Visit: Get there before it starts, and leave a clear path for people coming down to the water.

The riverfront is where the town makes the most sense.

Things to Do in Rishikesh

Yoga, rafting and long cups of tea by the river. Rishikesh runs on all three.

  • Join a yoga session: Schools here run drop in classes as well as longer courses. Pick one that matches your level.
  • Try guided river rafting: Seasonal, and only through an authorised operator. The river closes during the monsoon.
