Majuli
Journey to the world’s largest river island
Head to a delightful part of the North-East to soak in the sight of largest inhabited river Island in the world, located in the middle of mighty Brahmaputra river. Immerse in Majuli’s lush green vistas and taste the simple rustic life for a digital detox like no other. How about a bicycle tour with a local storyteller to support the host community? No better time for sustainable travel than now.
Uttarakhand
Trek to the Valley of Flowers
Alpine meadows carpeted with over 300 species of vividly colored, endangered flowers and medicinal plants in an enchanting valley surrounded by snow-capped Himalayas. Mountaineers, botanists, hiking enthusiasts, prep for a strenuous trek in Uttarakhand’s National Park and World Heritage Site. You may even encounter rare animals like Asiatic black bear, snow leopard, brown bear and blue sheep.
Cherrapunji
Soak in the rainiest place on the earth
Chase waterfalls, kiss the clouds and get caught in ‘anytime’ downpours at Cherrapunji, the wettest place on earth. The showstopper, Nohkalikai Falls, is Meghalaya’s topmost must-see sight and India’s tallest plunge waterfall, which drops from a sheer cliff 1115 feet high into a clear turquoise pool. Carry rain-jackets and umbrellas, please.
Jaisalmer
Stargaze in the vastness of the Thar desert
Astro photographers, pick the golden sanddunes of Jaisalmer for your next rendezvous with shooting stars and planets. One of the most prominent dark sites of the country is the ideal setting for a night with the telescope. Bare basics tent or luxury camp, all options are on offer. Get set for a camel ride in search of the milky way on the That Desert.
Kanyakumari
Witness sunrise at the southern tip of the country
Standing at the spot where three oceans meet, you may be able to see the mixing of the waters of Bay of Bengal, Indian Ocean and Arabian Sea in three different shades. The sun literally seems to bounce up from the depths of the waters like a fiery, shiny ball of fire. Goosebumps, nerve tingles, starry eyes? Absolutely. Early mornings were never so blessed.
