Rishikesh — scenic destination for Hire N Ride self-drive rentals

Why choose our bike rental in Rishikesh ?

Rishikesh isn't just for yoga and rafting — it's also a solid base for some beautiful mountain rides. Skip the overpriced taxis and the waiting. Pick a bike, put on your helmet, and go.

What makes Rishikesh different: Ganga-side spirituality plus adventure weekends — shorter riverside rides and easy links toward Haridwar or Mussoorie.

Freedom to Explore

From Rishikesh, you decide. Want to ride up to Neelkanth Mahadev through the jungle? Or take the winding road to Kunjapuri Temple for sunrise? Stop at a roadside chai stall, pull over for Ganga views, or chase a waterfall. No fixed timetables.

The Thrill of the Ride

The roads around Rishikesh are a hidden gem — smooth tarmac, sudden curves, and the Ganga flowing below you. Ride towards Devprayag to see the Alaknanda and Bhagirathi meet. Or take the climb to Kunjapuri — short, steep, and worth every turn.

Easy on the Budget

A bike rent in Rishikesh makes real sense. Taxis charge you by the day, even if you just go to Neelkanth and back. We charge by the hour or day. Our bikes are fuel-efficient, so a round trip to Kunjapuri or a ride to the Beatles Ashram won't empty your wallet.

Ride Like a Local

On a bike, you're not another tourist in a tempo traveller. You stop at tiny dhabas, discover hidden Ganga ghats, and find cafés that don't show up on Instagram feeds. We ride these roads every week — we'll tell you where the real chai is.

Reliable Bikes

From Royal Enfields for the longer rides to scooters for quick Laxman Jhula errands, every bike is serviced locally. We know the Rishikesh–Neelkanth route has some steep climbs, so our fleet is ready for both city runs and mountain twists.

Honest Pricing

No "extra for helmet" games. No sudden price hikes on weekends. Our bike rental Rishikesh rates are clear upfront — whether you need a bike for 2 hours to see the Ganga aarti or for 2 days to explore Rajaji National Park. You focus on the ride, not on the bill.

Scooty & scooter rental in Rishikesh

Looking for a scooty rental in Rishikesh? Hire N Ride also serves scooty and scooter riders for easy local hops, comfortable short rides, and everyday exploration — alongside our bike fleet, with the same transparent pricing and support.

Yes — scooty and scooter rentals are available through Hire N Ride in and around Rishikesh, subject to live inventory. Browse available two-wheelers on this page or switch filters to find an Economy Scooter when listed.
Scooties are ideal for shorter rides, easier handling, and comfortable daily exploration around Rishikesh. Choose a motorcycle for longer mountain routes, higher altitudes, and multi-day circuits.

Discover scenic routes, hidden gems, and must-visit spots around Rishikesh — curated for riders who want to explore beyond the main tourist trail.

Neelkanth Mahadev TempleModerate

Neelkanth Mahadev Temple

Jungle road & Shiva temple

A 12 km ride through dense forest and sharp hairpin bends. The temple sits on a hill surrounded by jungle — monkeys everywhere, local chai stalls, and a peaceful vibe. The road is narrow, so go slow and use your horn on blind turns.

from Rishikesh: 12 km30–40 minutes
Kunjapuri Temple (Sunrise Point)Moderate to Challenging

Kunjapuri Temple (Sunrise Point)

360° Himalayan sunrise

One of the best sunrise rides near Rishikesh. You leave early — around 4 AM — and climb for about an hour. The view from the top: the entire Himalayan range turning gold, with Ganga far below. The road is steep in places, but fully paved.

from Rishikesh: 30 km1 – 1.5 hours
Beatles Ashram (Chaurasi Kutia)Easy

Beatles Ashram (Chaurasi Kutia)

Abandoned ashram & graffiti

An abandoned ashram made famous by The Beatles in 1968. Now it's a quiet, graffiti‑covered ruin inside Rajaji National Park. Walk around meditation cells, climb the broken staircases, and take weird photos.

from Rishikesh: 6 km15–20 minutes
Vashishta Gufa (Cave)Easy

Vashishta Gufa (Cave)

Meditation cave & river breeze

An ancient cave where Sage Vashishta is said to have meditated. It's a short ride off the Rishikesh–Badrinath highway, then a few steps down to the river. There's a small temple and a newer cave you can sit inside. Quiet and off the usual tourist path.

from Rishikesh: 20 km35–40 minutes
Devprayag (The Confluence)Moderate

Devprayag (The Confluence)

River confluence & photo stop

This is where the Alaknanda and Bhagirathi rivers meet to become the Ganga. It's a proper day ride — about 75 km one way — but the road follows the river the whole time. Watch the clear green and muddy blue waters merge from the bridge. Carry water and snacks.

from Rishikesh: 75 km2 – 2.5 hours one way
Rajaji National Park (Chilla Gate)Easy

Rajaji National Park (Chilla Gate)

Wildlife & forest drive

The park is right next to Rishikesh. Ride to Chilla Gate (about 10 km), pay a small entry fee, and cruise through forest roads. You might spot elephants, deer, or peacocks. Best in early morning or late afternoon. No food inside — take your own.

from Rishikesh: 10 km to the gate15 minutes
Shivpuri (Rafting Base & Riverside Cafés)Easy

Shivpuri (Rafting Base & Riverside Cafés)

River cafés & rafting start point

A short, easy ride along the Ganga. Shivpuri is where most rafting trips start. Even if you don't raft, you can park your bike, walk down to the river, and eat Maggi at a cliffside café. Good for a relaxed afternoon.

from Rishikesh: 16 km25–30 minutes

Things to do in Rishikesh

Make the most of your trip to Rishikesh with these experiences — from adventure sports and temple visits to local culture and nature trails.

Ganga Aarti at Triveni Ghat or Parmarth Niketan

Ganga Aarti at Triveni Ghat or Parmarth Niketan

The evening aarti is the main event. Triveni Ghat is bigger and more crowded — reach by 6 PM to find a spot. Parmarth Niketan is smaller and feels more devotional. Either way, sit near the river, watch the lamps, and listen to the bells. It stays with you.

  • Daily at sunset
  • Free entry
  • Best from the steps
  • Bike parking nearby
River Rafting (Shivpuri to Rishikesh)

River Rafting (Shivpuri to Rishikesh)

If you're visiting between September and June, do the 16 km rafting stretch from Shivpuri to Nim Beach. Grade II–III rapids — exciting but not scary. Operators take you from Rishikesh, but you can ride your bike to Shivpuri and book directly. Cheaper that way.

  • 16 km stretch
  • Cliff jumping included sometimes
Walk Both Bridges (Ram & Lakshman Jhula)

Walk Both Bridges (Ram & Lakshman Jhula)

Ram Jhula is wider, busier, and good for people‑watching. Lakshman Jhula is older and currently closed for repairs (check before going). But even walking the Ram Jhula at sunset, with the Ganga below and temples on both sides, is worth the time. No vehicles allowed — just walk.

  • Free
  • Best at sunset
  • Chai stalls at both ends
  • Good photo spots
Eat at a Rooftop Café

Eat at a Rooftop Café

Forget the street level. Go up. Places like Little Buddha Café (near Ram Jhula) or Freedom Café (Lakshman Jhula side) have rooftop seating right over the Ganga. Order a thali, a cold coffee, and just sit. The sound of the river makes bad food taste good.

  • Rooftop views
  • Israeli & Indian food
  • Slow service but worth it
Visit the Tera Manzil Temple (Shri Trayambakeshwar)

Visit the Tera Manzil Temple (Shri Trayambakeshwar)

A weird, fascinating nine‑storey temple near Ram Jhula. Each floor has different deities — Hindu, then Tibetan, then even a small planet room. Climb to the top for a cool view of the bridges and river. Entry is free, but they ask for a small donation.

  • Quirky & colourful
  • Good for a 30‑min stop
Ride to Haridwar for Evening Aarti (Optional Day Trip)

Ride to Haridwar for Evening Aarti (Optional Day Trip)

If you have a full day and want a change of scene, ride from Rishikesh to Haridwar — only 25 km, flat road, 45 minutes. Watch the Har Ki Pauri aarti (huge and dramatic) and ride back before midnight. Different vibe from Rishikesh — more chaotic, more electric.

  • 25 km one way
  • Har Ki Pauri aarti at sunset
  • Bike parking available
