If you are looking for an exciting holiday in the hills, then a set of Uttarakhand Tour Packages that centre on adventure sports offers a thrilling choice. The state of Uttarakhand combines dramatic mountain scenery, flowing rivers and high-altitude skies with activities such as river rafting, paragliding, trekking and camping. In 2025, more travellers are choosing packages that go beyond sightseeing to include action and memories. This article walks you through some of the best places, expected prices, what to include in your plan, and why a specialist tour operator like Gangotri Travels can assist you.

Why adventure matters in these tour packages ?

Adventure activities add a fresh dimension to the traditional hill-holiday. Rather than only visiting viewpoints or temples, you get to engage actively: racing down river rapids, soaring above mountain valleys or climbing rock faces. These experiences stay with you longer, give a sense of achievement, and open new views of Uttarakhand’s nature. For travellers who want more than a walk in the hills, these adventure-oriented Uttarakhand Tour Packages are ideal.

Key destinations & activities

Here are some of the top places in Uttarakhand and the adventure experiences they offer:

1. River Rafting in Rishikesh & Shivpuri

• The River Ganga and its tributaries near Rishikesh offer white-water rafting stretches from beginner to intermediate level. 

• For example, a 2-night, 3-day itinerary into rafting begins from Rishikesh with approx cost around ₹2,500 per person for the basic rafting segment. 

• Best period: September to June when water levels are safer and more stable. 

2. Paragliding in Nainital / Bhimtal / Ranikhet

• Aerial adventures such as tandem paragliding are growing fast in these hill stations.

• From these points you can get sweeping views of the Himalayan valleys, lakes and forests while flying.

• Ideal for travellers who want a bird’s-eye view and a different thrill.

3. Trekking, Rock-Climbing & Snow Adventure

• Uttarakhand has treks suited for beginners to advanced, and supports rock climbing, rappelling in places like Mukteshwar.

• Winter or early spring seasons bring snow-treks (for example Chopta, Kedarkantha) which add another layer of adventure.

4. Camping, Zip-lining & Other Fun Activities

• On top of rafting and paragliding, many packages include camping beside rivers or at highland meadows, zip-lining through forested valleys, kayaking or canoeing.

• These act as complementary adventures and enhance the whole holiday feeling.

Tips for Selecting the Right Package

• Check the safety credentials of adventure operators. The state has emphasised need for regulation of sports like rafting and paragliding.

• Ensure the tour includes comfortable transport (cab service) since many spots are remote.

• Choose season-appropriate time: avoid heavy monsoon (June-August) for river activities.

• Ask about what is included (meals, guide, equipment) so you know the true cost.

• For best value, go for “group departure” or off-season deals, but verify quality.
