A New Leap in Adventure Tourism
Adventure seekers now have another reason to head to Rishikesh. Jumpin Heights, one of India’s pioneers in extreme adventure sports, has launched the country’s first ever Cut Cord Bungy along with an all new Running Valley Rope Jump. Both experiences are based in the Mohanchatti valley, a location already famed for its adrenaline packed activities, and are expected to attract both Indian and international thrill seekers.
The Cut Cord Bungy
The star attraction is the Cut Cord Bungy, a seated jump experience from a towering height of 270 feet over the Hall River, which is a tributary of the Ganga. Unlike a traditional bungy, participants are suspended while holding on to a single cord. The real twist comes when the jump master cuts the cord, triggering the free fall. Designed with multiple safety systems and backed by a team of trained professionals, this activity is set to deliver one of the wildest adrenaline rushes in India while adhering to international safety standards.
The Running Valley Rope Jump
Adding to the thrill factor is the Running Valley Rope Jump, a unique spin on the popular Giant Swing. This version begins with a sprint start from Rishikesh’s famous yellow bridge before leaping into the valley. With sweeping Himalayan views as the backdrop, the activity merges breathtaking natural scenery with an intense adventure experience. It is crafted to appeal to those who crave both speed and height in their outdoor adventures.
Building on a Decade of Legacy
Niharika Nigam, Managing Director of Jumpin Heights, said that the decision to launch these new activities was not taken lightly. “We have taken over a decade to add something new to our lineup because it had to be bigger and wilder than anything we had done before. These launches are not just about thrills, they mark a bold new chapter for Jumpin Heights.”
Since its establishment in 2010, Jumpin Heights has played a crucial role in shaping Rishikesh’s reputation as India’s adventure capital. With activities like bungy jumping, flying fox, and giant swing already drawing thousands every year, the new additions are expected to boost both domestic and inbound tourism, contributing significantly to Uttarakhand’s economy.
Why Rishikesh Is The Perfect Location
Just 45 minutes from Lakshman Jhula, the Mohanchatti valley offers a combination of rugged Himalayan landscapes and established safety practices. The picturesque surroundings, combined with carefully engineered adventure experiences, make Rishikesh a natural hub for those looking to push their limits. The addition of the Cut Cord Bungy and Running Valley Rope Jump ensures that the city remains firmly on the global adventure map.
A Boost to Extreme Tourism in India
The launches come at a time when travellers are actively seeking unique and high adrenaline experiences. By offering innovative, safe, and globally benchmarked activities, Jumpin Heights is not only catering to domestic adventure enthusiasts but also making Rishikesh an appealing destination for international travellers. This push towards extreme tourism reinforces India’s growing presence in the global adventure travel sector.
Rishikesh has always been more than just yoga retreats and river rafting. With the arrival of the Cut Cord Bungy and Running Valley Rope Jump, the city cements its place as the ultimate playground for thrill seekers.
