Air

Parasailing in Pachmarhi

It looks difficult but is not really; though it is every bit as exciting. Strapped into safety gear, a crash helmet and a parachute, visitors are towed behind a jeep till the parachute fills with air and carries them into the sky. From there, after having been borne on the wings if the wind for a few minutes, parasialers descend to earth to be received by their handlers in a soft handling. Most parasailers in Pachmari are beginners with no previous experience of this exhilarating air sport.

Water

Boating

Soaring in glittering splendor, the Marble Rocks at Bhedaghat rise to a hundred feet on either side of the Narmada. The perpendicular magnesium limestone rocks fringe the crystal waters of the Narmada providing the perfect reason to take a boat down the glistening water. Boating on a moonlit night, when the whole stretch of water is transformed into a sheet of liquid silver is absolutely magical.
