To get the most out of the Valley, you have the option of pitching your own tent or putting up at an organised campsite on the sandy banks of the Tons River. The day begins with a wake-up call from the birds and the surreal sight of the entire valley bathed in the quiet of the first rays of the sun. The day brings options of rafting, cycling, trekking or simply lazing around by the riverside under the shade of the tallest pine tree in Asia. For people who like walking down the historical lane, a visit to the ancient temple built by the Pandavas is a must. The Tons Valley also boasts of the only Indian temple dedicated to Duryodhana, complete with his image. If you?re not the active type, you could still be persuaded to do the walk to the Lunagad Creek. From the Aquaterra Adventures campsite, it's just 30 minutes away, through a narrow gorge, pine forests and Gujjar huts, and at the end of it, there's a clear blue pool with a small waterfall. Just like in the movies only, here you can be almost sure there are no prying eyes. Looking up the mountainside, you can see clouds coming down the valley, interwoven with strands of golden sunlight... ethereal! The Tons Valley comes with an excitement-guaranteed tag for children. They can attempt rock-climbing, rappelling, even river rafting. And if you'd rather let them loose while you laze in the sun, the children can choose from among cricket and volleyball, short nature walks and birdwatching sorties.
