1 Day Tehri Experience – “A Day by the Blue Lake”

Your journey begins as you arrive at New Tehri, the town overlooking the sparkling expanse of Tehri Lake. Standing at one of the highest dams in the world, the massive Tehri Dam leaves you awestruck with its scale and the surrounding Himalayan backdrop. After a short orientation, you head towards the lake viewpoint, where stories of the submerged Old Tehri town and the history of the dam bring alive the unique character of this place.

Soon, the calm blue waters invite you to step into adventure. From the thrill of speed boating across the vast reservoir, to the excitement of jet skiing and banana rides, the lake offers a playground of water sports. For those who prefer something serene, kayaking on the still waters lets you soak in the quiet beauty of the valley.

At mid-day, a lakeside picnic is laid out, where light snacks and refreshments are enjoyed in the open air. The afternoon gives you time to relax, stroll by the lake promenade, and take in the changing shades of the mountains. As the sun dips, you depart from Tehri, carrying memories of a day filled with both thrill and tranquility.

The afternoon is dedicated to water fun – speed boating, jet skiing, zorbing, and kayaking on the calm waters.

Later, a refreshing nature walk through pine-scented trails introduces you to the natural side of Tehri. The walk ends at a quiet vantage point from where the entire spread of the lake glistens under the golden light. As the evening sets in, you gather around for a storytelling session about the submerged Old Tehri town, once bustling with life, now resting beneath the waters. Dinner is served at the campsite, and the night sky above is dotted with countless stars.

The day begins with a peaceful yoga or meditation session by the lake, as the morning sun reflects over the calm waters. After breakfast, you set out for a short trek to a hilltop viewpoint. From here, the panoramic sweep of the Himalayan peaks and the endless stretch of the reservoir is a sight to behold.

3 Days Tehri Explorer – “Adventure & Mountain Life”

Day 1

On arrival at Tehri, you settle into your chosen accommodation—be it a cozy lakeside camp or a resort with a view of the dam. After a short rest, the exploration begins with a guided visit to Tehri Dam, where you witness the marvel of engineering up close. The lake unfolds beneath you, stretching like a giant mirror between the hills.

In the evening, a cycling tour around Tehri Lake takes you through winding paths dotted with pine forests and small hamlets. Along the way, photography stops let you capture the calm waters against the towering peaks. The day ends with dinner and a restful night by the lake.

The morning is dedicated to pure adventure. After breakfast, you dive into a series of water sports – from high-speed rides on jet skis to fun-filled banana boat experiences and the calm glide of a kayak. The adrenaline-filled hours balance perfectly with the stillness of the lake surroundings.

Post lunch, you head for a village walk in a nearby Garhwali settlement. The rustic houses, terraced fields, and warm smiles of the locals give you a taste of mountain life. You are introduced to their traditions, and if lucky, offered to try a local delicacy. As the evening draws close, a sunset hike to a hilltop viewpoint gifts you one of the most mesmerizing sights—the sky painted in hues of orange over the endless blue waters. Dinner follows with light music and a camp gathering.

On the final day, you rise early for a birdwatching trail, where the chirping of Himalayan species creates a natural morning melody. After breakfast, you have leisure time—either to take one last paddle on a kayak, enjoy quiet lakeside photography, or simply breathe in the mountain air.
