Shivpuri to NIM Beach is the classic Rishikesh run and about seventy per cent of what we take out. You get four named rapids — Three Blind Mice, Cross Fire, Roller Coaster and Golf Course — with enough flat water between them to catch your breath, jump in, and let the guide talk. Big enough to feel like something happened, forgiving enough that nobody has a bad time.
