The adventure of descending a rock, relying 100% on the equipment, is called rappelling. Like rock climbing, rappelling in Rishikesh is also great fun. Geared with the right equipment, you can double up the joy of this adventure. Rappelling down a cliff can be done in a variety of ways. Even when you have with your standard climbing gear, you should know how it uses the gear for a safe rappel down the cliff.

ESSENTIAL EQUIPMENT
Equipment needed while rappelling down a cliff include athletic tapes, climbing gear, harness, helmets, ropes and shoes. It is very important to test the rappel anchor before you set it. One end of the rope should be fixed to the rappel. Another important thing to remember here is that the rope does not pass over sharp edges while the other end of the rope reaches the ground. The rappel device should be attached to both the rope and the harness. Instructors will guide you on how to use the equipment and have a safe rappelling down the cliff.
