Camp High 5 is a riverside camp located on the Banks of the River Alaknanda at Jayalgarh (near Devprayag). The camp is ideally located far from any tourist destination, or place of pilgrimage, yet close enough to the nearest rail head and airport as well as connected by a National highway, to make it easily accessible from New Delhi .
The gushing Alaknanda, innumerable treks and trails into the nearby mountains & forests, quaint villages and pristine sandy |
|
beaches add to the overall outdoor experience. Also the camp offers an ideal blend of all the necessary creature comforts along with the rugged terrain that is required for an activity filled holiday. |
|
Camp Verdant Valley is set on the banks of the pellucid Mandakini, the name for the Ganges in the celestial world. Located at Kund 140 km from Haridwar, the Camp is a new foray from GIO to bring you exotic and out of the ordinary locales that are in no hurry to find themselves on the tourist map of India .
Set against the backdrop of the stunning Kedar peaks and with the Bugyals (meadows) of Chopta just a stone's throw |
|
away, Camp Verdant Valley is an outdoorsman's delight. Here one wakes up to the sight of the majestic snow clad Kedar peak with the soothing river music of Mandakini playing in the background. It is the kind of place that is set so far away from the humdrum of daily existence that Camp Verdant Valley will rejuvenate the mind and body. |
|
Camp Room-on-the-Roof is set atop a series of step farms overlooking the Viraatkhai valley, 25 kms from Chakrata. Standing in splendid isolation at an altitude of 1900 m, the camp offers breathtaking views of snow-capped Himalayan peak on a clear day and hold special promise for genuine nature lovers. Far from the bustle of urban life, all you are likely to hear are sweet bird songs and the rush of mountain winds sweeping across the valley.
|
|
A 45 minute drive from the camp brings one to the upper stretches of the Yamuna, the favoured river for the true whitewater rafting enthusiast!! Each rapid in this section of the river comes hard on the heels of the previous one, creating a fast and furious rafting experience unmatched by anything the Ganges has to offer. In addition to rafting and white-water sport, there is a vast range of other adventure activities like rock climbing, rappelling, bridge slithering, hiking over little explored mountain trails, ensures that your stay at the camp is a truly memorable one
