Inside Ananda in the Himalayas

Set inside the former palace estate of the Maharaja of Tehri-Garhwal, Ananda is one of India's original destination wellness retreats — built around a 24,000 sq ft spa and structured Ayurveda, yoga, and wellness programmes rather than à la carte stays.

The estate sits above Rishikesh in the Himalayan foothills, with views down into the Ganges valley. Most guests arrive for multi-night wellness programmes — detox, stress management, Ayurvedic rejuvenation — though shorter stays focused on the spa and forest trails are equally common.

Signature experiences

  • Personalised Ayurveda and wellness consultations
