01. Distance from Road/Parking: This point becomes very important to check if you are traveling especially with elderly people. You should always check the walking distance between the parking lot and the campsite and whether the distance is flat or uphill/downhill (slope). Since you are coming to the mountain for adventure, you may have to walk up and down the mountain. At Camp Ganga Vatika we have provided this information in each and every package..

So always check what kind of river you are getting within walking distance of the campsite. Since we are located in Shivpuri, we have easy access to the river Ganga from our camps, and a small stream is also available at a short walk.

03. Road Type: If you're traveling with your vehicle then this point is worthing noting the type of road to reach the campsite. There are two types - the Main Badrinath highway and the single-lane village road. Some people may find it difficult to drive on narrow roads, so they should check the distance of the campsite from the Badrinath highway. Our all three campsites are located on the highway, and one campsite is located 1 KM from Badrinath highway on village road (car goes directly to this campsite)

04. Distance from River Rafting Office: If you're coming to Rishikesh for river rafting and opting to book camps for your stay. Then you can also check the distance of nearby rafting offices from Camp. Our rafting office is located in Shivpuri 150 meters from Three campsites and 2 Km from the mountain view camp.
