About the property:

Brush aside that backlog of everyday toil and head to the hills. Raga on the Ganges awaits you in the picturesque village of Singthali near Rishikesh.

Whether you are travelling alone or with a bunch of friends, Raga keeps you in perfect company with the rhythmic sounds of the river Ganga and offers breathtaking views of the mountains and the holy river. The retreat is constructed in a terrace form to ensure you get a clear and distinct view from every deck. Apart from the hush silence of the valley, the gushing of the Ganges is the only sound you will hear making this an experience one-of-its-kind. Participate in a plethora of activities throughout the day like a short trek to a secluded beach close to the property or camping and kayaking by the Ganges.
