Rajaji National Park at Rishikesh-Haridwar has quiet mornings. An abandoned highway running right through the Sanctuary helps a reassuring feeling that one wouldn't get lost for long.
So daybreak at forest lodge meant an invitation to a leisurely nature walk. A lively, young canine appeared and decided he was to be our guide and companion for the tour. Aah, that smell of morning forest, the breeze, the chirping and sudden flights of birds between trees, that hour is much more than a walk. The guide never tires of anecdotes along the way. Our companion invents his own thrill n' games with other fauna. Nature Walk ends at the edge of majestic Ganga. The township is visible at the horizon and we're glad to be at this end.
