Spiritual with Hill Station

Arrive at Dehradun Airport and transfer to Haridwar. Upon arrival, check in to your hotel and get ready for a spiritual experience. Later, visit the Mata Mansa Devi Temple, one of the most popular temples in Haridwar, dedicated to Goddess Mata Mansa Devi and located on Bilwa Parvat. The temple is renowned for its serene atmosphere and spiritual significance.

In the evening, head to Har Ki Pauri to witness the mesmerizing Ganga Aarti, a ritual that draws devotees from across the country. Har Ki Pauri, which literally means “Steps of Lord Shiva,” is famous as the point where the Ganga River exits the mountain terrains and enters the plains. Visitors have multiple vantage points to view the aarti, including crossing the bridge to the opposite side of the ghat or hiring a boat for a closer experience. Many nearby hotels also offer balcony views of the ceremony, allowing tourists to enjoy the aarti comfortably.

Start your day from Haridwar and proceed to Rishikesh. Upon arrival, check in to your hotel and get ready to explore the spiritual and cultural landmarks of the city. Begin with a visit to Ram Jhula, a beautiful iron suspension bridge located at Muni-Ki-Reti, just two kilometres from Rishikesh. Ram Jhula connects the Shivanand Ashram on the east bank with Swargashram on the west bank. Originally a hanging jute ropeway, it was replaced in 1980 with the permanent iron suspension bridge built with the help of PWD and Shivananda Ashram. The area is often bustling with saints, sages, and devotees and is home to attractions such as Parmarth Niketan, Geeta Bhawan, Swargashram, Yog Niketan, and the Beatles Ashram. Food lovers can also enjoy nearby food courts.

Next, visit Laxman Jhula, another iconic hanging iron bridge over the River Ganga, built by the British in 1929. This site is closely connected to the pilgrimage of Lord Rama in the Himalayas. Laxman Jhula features the Laxman Temple and a lively tourist market offering handicrafts, precious and semi-precious stones, gems, clothes, Nehru jackets, kurtas, sarees, and Ayurvedic medicines, creating a vibrant atmosphere reminiscent of a European street market.

Transfer to the scenic hill station of Mussoorie. On arrival, check in to your hotel and later explore the famous Mall Road, known for its vibrant shops, cafes, and picturesque views of the surrounding hills.

Mussoorie, often called the “Queen of Hills,” is located in the Dehradun district of Uttarakhand at the foothills of the Garhwal Himalayan Range. The nearby town of Landour serves as an army cantonment and is considered part of Greater Mussoorie, along with the townships of Jharipani and Barlowganj, adding to the charm and historical significance of the region.

After breakfast, free time for shopping at Mall Road. After lunch, visit Kempty Waterfalls. Enjoy a cablecar ride to Gun Hill, a well-known hilltop locale offering sweeping views. Visit Lal Tibba Scenic Point (at your own cost) and Bhadraj Temple, a simple white Hindu temple with a dome located on a mountaintop hiking route. In the evening, enjoy the cable ride (at your own optional cost).

Overnight stay at the hotel.

After breakfast, visit Kanatal, a unique destination in the Tehri Garhwal district. On arrival, explore Kodia Jungle, where the dense and lush forest provides a home to several animal species. While roaming around, you may spot animals like ghorals, musk deer, barking deer, and wild boars. Later, visit the grand Tehri Dam and Surkanda Devi Temple. After sightseeing, return to the hotel. The evening is at leisure.

Overnight stay at the hotel.
