oung India is moving away from just lazing around in a resort, visiting a few touristy places,
clicking pictures and then getting back to the comfort of their hotel rooms.
With travelling becoming more than a hobby, youngsters across India are exploring off-beat
destinations and new experiences.
Do you believe that travelling is a soul-searching experience -- where you get to learn as much
about yourself as you learn about the new place, culture and nature's wonders?
Then here are some experiences you should be giving a shot sometime soon.
Wait! Did you say, it's already in your bucket list?

currents, the team spirit and the adventure that come along make this water sport a must-try.

You could join one such trek and get to experience the real fun of trekking.
The cost is affordable and depends on the number of days involved in the trek.
From treks that last a less than a day to ones that last for more than a week, from snow-laden
mountains to rocky terrain and green cover, you have choices galore.

From learning to identify footprints of animals, spotting wild birds, squirrels, insects, reptiles,
etc. and knowing more about their ecosystem - jungle trails are the best introduction to
wildlife.
You'll walk for miles through the jungles which would mean walking through slushy paths,
deciduous cover or thick green canopy, sometimes battling mosquito bites as well.
Many forest reserves offer guided jungle trails and it's something you shouldn't miss. Just trust
the guide and enjoy an experience of being in the wild.
5. Outdoor camping
