What makes it Unique

Unlike a typical camping location in Rishikesh, Mount Adobe is on the hill top. The views of the surrounding areas are absolutely breathtaking. The place is surrounded by nothing, but nature.

With picturesque views in all directions you can immerse yourself in nature. Relax in a hammock, watch the sun set, explore the local landscape by foot and unwind.
