Picture it: you sitting on a beach, and the waves gently lapping the sand in front of you. While the sun slips behind the horizon, you are left with a sky floating with a few wispy clouds, changing colour from blue to blush and blush to a galaxy full of stars. One moment the sky is burning with all shades of pink, and the next burns orange and fades into the darkness with tranquillity enveloping your camp. Sounds divine, doesn’t it? If you want to be one with nature, adventure camping on a river beach camp is an experience that’s well worth trying. Don’t believe us? Well, let us convince you otherwise.
Rediscover Your Childhood
Take a moment to rewind your memories and call back, when was the last time you felt like you were a child? In the chaos of growing up to be a responsible human, we often forget our roots! Going on a beachside river camp like on the Ramganga River can take you back to the days when times were all fun and frolic with a group of playmates.
Be it windy days blowing breeze through your hair, hot afternoon swims, kayaking or building sand castles, you can slither off bridges, jump off cliffs into deep bools or rest your back against sand or hot rocks after a cold swim and hear the gushing murmurs of the water.
On an adventure camp, you don’t need to be your grown-up self. Be a free child and do what you always wanted to do. Cook food next to a stream, trek into a deep jungle, start a random jam session or tell some ancestral tales around the bonfire about spirits and Bravehearts. Nothing is stopping you!
Experience Nature at Its Finest
From the emerald pools and jungles to hidden mountain streams, you can explore a lot on your bikes. River beaches are often located in areas rich in biodiversity. This makes them excellent spots for wildlife observation. Early mornings and late evenings are prime times for spotting various bird species, mammals, and other wildlife that come to the river to drink and forage. Bring binoculars and a camera to capture the diverse flora and fauna, and you may end up with some unforgettable sightings and memories.
Conclusion
There’s always surreal about staying near a water body. It calms the mind, body and soul and somewhere it connects mankind with its primitive spirit. You could argue that camping anywhere in nature can feel serene, but a river beach camp is a downright heavenly experience. The vast expanse of water can help you sleep like a baby. No need for a sound machine to provide ambient noises, because nature will do it for you. You can actively start your day, and the adrenaline rush during the adventure camping would snap you out of the lazy or stagnant schedules of city life that were keeping you gloomy, and you can meet a community of like-minded travellers who feel like family. Now, that’s what we call a win-win!
