So, to all those visiting India or the lucky ones who already belong to India pack your bags and set out for these marvellous places spread across from the mighty Himalayas on the north, surreal beaches in the south, prolific jungles in the east, grandiose dessert in the west to the gripping midlands.
1. Skydiving (Mysore)
Soaring high in the sky at the height of 10,000 feet and flying freely like a bird while the gravity pulls you down is very enthusiastic. Mysore, a city near Bangalore, offers you the breath-taking experience and has various options like tandem, static and accelerated free fall.
2. Roopkund’s Offbeat Trekking (Uttarakhand)
Have you ever walked with the dead? The trek is no ordinary trek, starting in the alpine setting through the dense oak forest you head to the glacial Roopkund lake. Don’t be shocked to find a piece of bone on your way because the place is scattered with human skeletons.
3. Motor-Riding (Shimla to Leh)
Pick up your motor-bikes and your motor-buddies to set for the Himalayas. Ladakh is all about the picturesque mountain terrain, amazing valleys, beautiful river side views all while you ride your way up on the deadliest and thrill-filled roads from Shimla to Leh.
4. Bungee Jumping (Rishikesh)
India’s highest fixed platform for jumping is at Mohanchatti near Rishikesh at the height of 83 meters. Let yourself loose as you jump into nothingness with just the rubber cords tied to your ankles overlooking the rocky river. The leap of faith is worth an experience.
5. Scuba-diving (Andaman and Nicobar Islands)
Andaman and Nicobar Islands offers you the best scuba-diving experience to view the marine life with a close shot, near an active Volcano. Go on an exploration voyage and discover the various coral life forms, natural reefs, blue lagoons and white coral sands.
6. Caving (Meghalaya)
Meghalaya has some very offbeat adventure for you with its captivating caves nestled among the secret waterfalls and dense forest. Pack your safety gears, some food and go for cave-exploration which has a complicated web structure.
