Our Chandrashila trek is one of the best trekking and river rafting trips in Uttarakhand. This comprehensive tour offers some great trails, ending with a thrilling rafting adventure at Devprayag. The trek entails climbing the Chandrashila mountain summit at 4000m by a gradual ascent through rhododendron bushes. The summit provides a panoramic view of all the major peaks in the region including Nandadevi (7817m), the highest peak of the Indian Himalayas. The Pangarchulla trekking peak is another high-altitude summit that trekkers can climb on a six-day trek to Kuar Pass that ends with a river rafting expedition in Rudraprayag. The Pangarchulla peak too offers great views of the adjoining peaks like Kamet, the second highest peak in the region, Nilkanth and Changabang. What makes these treks even more exciting is spending the night in tents set up at the base of the mountains or at a nearby base camp.
Experience the thrill of sleeping under the stars
Count a million stars twinkling above snowy peaks that glow in the moonlight. Combined adventure trips involve setting up camps along river banks as well as mountain slopes. The camps are positioned to offer great views of the surrounding mountains and landscape. The Khulara camp en route to the Kuari pass has breath-taking views of the Himalayas. A rafting expedition calls for pitching tents along the river. Trekkers can enjoy a bonfire at the campsite on the beach while watching the river flow by. On clear days, trekkers are in for a treat as the clear skies are lit up by countless stars. It is mesmeric to lie back in your tent and gaze up at the sparking dots, trying to spot constellations in the night sky.
Raft through Grade IV, V rapids
The camping and river rafting tours offered by Red Chilli Adventure involve navigating several grade IV and IV+ rapids. The tours include 26 and 35-kilometre rafting stretches. We provide all rafting gear like paddles; life jackets and helmets and our experienced guides give you a run-down of the safety guidelines at the start of the trip. A safety kayaker accompanies every rafting tour so you can rest easy and focus on the adventure. The Chamoli river presents several challenging rapids. We need to survey the water level and tides to determine whether to tackle some of these rapids. The Hillary Fall rapid at Nandaprayag is one such example. The Kakar Fall is a Grade V rapid at Rudraprayag. The rapid leads to a narrow box canyon. Just 15 metres wide, the canyon can be crossed by a kakar (deer). Hence its name. Our rafting tours are specially designed to cover stretches that have the maximum number of rapids for a truly thrilling adventure on the water.
Step into a fairy tale kingdom
Our combined adventure trips take you to some of the most beautiful spots in northern India. The untouched beauty of the landscape makes it seem like a fairy tale world filled with lush green meadows, towering mountains with soft snowy peaks, forests of horse chestnut and walnut trees and cascading waterfalls. The meadows are home to flocks of sheep who graze there freely and the water from the falls is pristine. This lends an ethereal charm to the place and travellers are left awestruck taking it all in. Remote villages situated high up in the mountains, far removed from modern amenities present a fascinating picture of human life as it once was- simple, content and at one with nature.
