Ganges, India

From series “The Most Dangerous River Rapids for Rafting”
Ganges River is one of the best places for rafting in Asia. It is the largest and most teeming river in India. The starting point of the most popular rafting route is Devaprayag City, along with two rushing rivers - Alaknanda and Bhagirati feeding the Ganges River. Some rafting routes begin before the confluence of the rivers, on the Alaknanda River.

Apart from the numerous thresholds and obstacles, a lot of pleasant discoveries await the tourists. The travelers, accompanied by the experienced guide, can visit the holy places on the banks of Ganges and the ancient temples. One of the most complicated routes is the district between the towns of Devprayag and Kaudiala. The experienced athletes need about five hours to overcome a series of steep descents and sharp turns.

The sleepers, which are located along the route between Kaudiala and Brahmpuri, are also very dangerous. Their names speak for themselves: 'Between the Fire', 'Wall', 'Rollercoaster', the threshold with the original name 'Three Blind Mice' is considered one of the most dangerous Brahmpuri and Rishikesh, where there are almost no extreme obstacles, and after the exciting adventure you can walk through the picturesque Rishikesh district, which the Hindus consider to be the holy place.
