An entire cottage amidst the Himalayas, a breathtakingly beautiful view of the Ganga and room service! Could we ask for a better vacation? All of this is at just a half an hour flight away from Delhi. A stay at this resort in Uttarakhand which goes by the name ‘Atali Ganga’ is what we’re talking about.
This is one of those beautiful cottage-resorts that’s located amidst the Himalayas and has everything you can possible dream of, in an ideal vacation. The entire property is filled with nearly 22 independent cottages which you can stay in and many other amenities such as a swimming pool, a really beautiful café (the white water café), a yoga studio, all of them amidst and overlooking some stunning landscapes.
There’s another good thing about this resort and that is that is not in the middle of the city of Rishikesh. In fact, it is located at about 35 minutes drive from the centre of Rishikesh which makes it completely free of any noise, pollution or the usual hustle and bustle of this temple city. Yet another perk this place has got to offer is that while you are with them, you can have a go at the many activities like the river rafting and mountain biking with their guides.

The cottages are made mainly of stone, reed and steel wire and despite that, they’ve been designed to great beauty and there are many visitors who come here just to take a look at the style of construction. All the cottages, some of them with single bedroom and some with connecting double bedrooms all have a balcony with a great view and they’re all quietly located on the hills unperturbed and beautiful.
