Laxman Jhula & Ram Jhula Walking Tour

About This Activity

Experience the famous Laxman Jhula and Ram Jhula walking tour, exploring Rishikesh's two iconic suspension bridges hanging over the Ganges. Laxman Jhula, built in 1929, is a 450-foot-long bridge situated 70 feet above the river, believed to be where Lord Laxman crossed the Ganges on jute ropes. Ram Jhula, slightly shorter at 450 feet, connects Swargashram with Sivananda Ashram. The walking tour includes visits to surrounding temples like Trayambakeshwar Temple (13-story temple), Lakshman Temple, and various ashrams. Walk through bustling markets selling spiritual items, local handicrafts, and enjoy stunning river views. The bridges sway gently as you walk, offering thrilling views of the Ganges below and mountains beyond. Best visited early morning or evening to avoid crowds.
