Nature Trails, the experiential hospitality brand of Thomas Cook (India) Limited, has expanded its footprint with the launch of Nature Trails Rishikesh in Uttarakhand. This marks the brand’s fifth resort in India, following its existing properties at Durshet, Sajan, and Kundalika in Maharashtra, and Rock Valley in Goa.
The new opening reflects the group’s continued focus on experience-led stays that combine nature, culture, and adventure.
Located Between Two Of India’s Most Visited Destinations
Nature Trails Rishikesh is strategically positioned between Rishikesh and Haridwar, two of the country’s most prominent spiritual and adventure tourism centres. Spread across four acres of greenery in the Chilla region, near the entry to Rajaji National Park, the resort is designed for travellers seeking a balance between spiritual immersion and outdoor exploration.
The property features 29 rooms, each with private balconies and sit-out areas. Open lawns and palm-lined pathways create a relaxed, Himalayan-inspired setting.

Within the resort, visitors can enjoy poolside relaxation with mountain views, evening walks through landscaped grounds, and dining that highlights authentic Garhwali flavours alongside popular Indian dishes.

The resort is approximately 20 kilometres from Haridwar railway station and about 40 kilometres from Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun.
The location and facilities make it suitable for families, couples, spiritual travellers, adventure seekers, group retreats, and corporate off-sites.
