A walking journey along the Ganga

Walking the River, Flowing Within
A Himalaya Ganga Parikrama
Rishikesh | 1–5 March, 2026

A five-day walking pilgrimage along the sacred course of the Ganga –
from Devaprayag, where the river emerges from the confluence of Bhagirathi and Alaknanda streams, to Rishikesh, where the river joins the plains. (We gather in Rishikesh, travel together by bus to Devaprayag,and walk our way back to Rishikesh.)

 We walk the ancient Himalayan paths through forests, villages, and riverbanks, moving in silence and shared rhythm, listening to the river, the mountains, and what stirs within.
