Hymns and Hills

Day 1: Delhi to Mussoorie – Gateway to the Hills

Your journey begins in the bustling capital of Delhi. As you drive northward, watch the landscape transform — the plains give way to rolling hills and crisp mountain air. Arrive in Mussoorie, the “Queen of the Hills,” nestled amidst the Shivalik ranges, and check into your hotel. The evening is free to relax and soak in the refreshing Himalayan ambiance.

Day 2: Exploring Mussoorie & Landour – A Colonial Reverie

Wake to the charm of mist-laden peaks and head toward La Tibba, the highest point in Mussoorie, offering panoramic views of snow-clad Himalayan peaks.
Meander through Landour Mall Road, once trodden by British officers, now a quiet promenade lined with deodar trees. Visit the charming Landour Clock Tower, then ascend to Gun Hill, a historic viewpoint accessed by a thrilling ropeway ride. End the day with a peaceful walk along Camel's Back Road, where the silhouettes of the hills at sunset are nothing short of poetic.

Day 3: Nature’s Lap – Gardens, Heritage & Waterfalls

Begin the day at the Company Garden, which is blooming with seasonal flowers and a small amusement park. Then visit the George Everest House, the former home of the man after whom the world’s highest peak is named, with mesmerizing views and a touch of history.
Next, rejuvenate yourself with the thundering cascades of Kempty Falls, a favorite since colonial times. Wind down with a serene visit to Mussoorie Lake, reflecting the colors of the sky as the day ends.

Day 4: From Hills to Holy Waters – Haridwar to Rishikesh

Depart from Mussoorie and journey to the spiritual corridor of Haridwar. Discover the hidden Robber’s Cave, where myth and geology intertwine. Visit Muni Ki Reti, the traditional gateway for spiritual seekers. At Betel Ashram, find peace in yogic silence.
As dusk falls, witness the spectacular Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri, where flickering diyas float like stars upon the river. Continue to Rishikesh and rest by the sacred Ganga.

Day 5: Rishikesh – Adventure Meets Spirituality

Today’s adventure begins with the thrill of white water rafting on the Ganga, followed by a bungee jump that promises an adrenaline rush against the stunning Himalayan backdrop.
Later, walk across the iconic Laxman and Ram Jhulas, suspension bridges that connect the banks of faith and folklore. As the sun dips low, join the spiritual Ganga Aarti at Parmarth Niketan, where chants and bells echo in divine harmony. Retreat to your hotel with a soul full of peace.

Day 6: Return to Delhi – Journey’s Reflection

After a hearty breakfast, bid farewell to the hills and rivers. Your journey back to Delhi is a time to reflect on the calm, thrill, and wonder you've experienced. As the plains welcome you again, carry with you memories steeped in nature, culture, and serenity.
