Saptrishi Ashram is a beautiful, quaint old, a bit delapidated ashram about 5kms before Haridwar. Founded in 1943 by Goswami Guru Dutt, it belongs to the Sanatan Dharam Pratinidhi Sabha of Punjab. It is meant to work for the revival of Hindu traditions. Housed in the complex is a residential hostel for poor students and a college where Sanskrit is taught. At the time of our visit, there were 180 students in the college, 120 of them being residential. The entire education and food is free for the students.Also within the campus, are 43 "kutiyas" or huts, which are actually small two room independent houses with attached bathrooms and kitchen. They are allotted to devotees to stay for as long and when they like. When vacant they are also given to other people to stay for a few days, usually on recommendation of known persons.
Ganga is just a two minute walk from the gates of the Ashram and is a sight to see. Across the river one can see the Chilla Wild life sanctuary and elephants occassionally cross over to eat from the farms.The Ashram is named "Saptrishi" which means seven sages. In ancient times there were seven saints who used to meditate here. The river Ganga in order to pass by without disturbing them, splits here into seven streams, as can be seen on Google maps.
The Pandav brothers on their way to heaven, passed through this place. This is shown by statues of the five brothers and their wife near the river bank.In more recent times, people walking to Badrinath and Kedarnath used to pass through and sometimes rest here. An old delapidated building near the present ashram was said to be for night stay of pilgrims walking into the hills.
We really appreciated the advice our travel agent provided prior to finalizing our trip itinerary and then the detailed planning on his part to put it all together. Everyone who was to meet with us did. Everyone was very helpful, especially the guides whose knowledge of their area was phenomenal. Tasting local food and refreshments and the accommodations in small interesting hotels is the most enjoyable and memorable part of the trip.

This travel agency put together an amazing itinerary for a week in Uttarakhand for our family. We planned this trip without a lot of lead time and our travel agency was quick to respond and made sure our needs, and the needs of our 2 year-old were taken care of. They booked wonderful centrally located boutique hotels in each of the cities we visited. We were looking for a relaxing week to explore Uttarakhand, and that is exactly what we had..

We had an unbelievable time in Uttarakhand this winter. Allseasonsz travel agency provided us with excellent hotels, located in the center of the cities, comfortable, and close to the main sights and trendy restaurants. The guides and drivers for our private tours were phenomenal - very knowledgable and well spoken. We have a family of 6, so they arranged transportation for us in a private van, which was beyond convenient! Lastly, they added stops to our itinerary, that I myself would not have chosen. But those spots ended up being some of our favorite places to see! Our travel agency was also extremely flexible in working with us - they respected our desire to have some downtime with the family, as well as making reservations for us at wonderful restaurants!
