Overview
Take a break from the mundane and escape where spirituality meets history. The beautiful island of Rameswaram is sure to enthrall each one of us as the Hindu texts describe this as from where Lord Rama launched his battle against the mighty Ravana. Feel the war-cry of the vanarsena of Lord Rama as they would have marched over to Lanka.

How about some spooky experience? Then the ghost town of Dhanushkodi is one such place. Since the 1964 Rameswaram cyclone destroyed it, time stands still. Walk around and listen to stories that the ruins say.

If the engineering marvels excite you, take some time to savor the view of India’s first sea bridge. The Pamban bridge connecting Rameswaram Island to the mainland turned 100 years old in 2014, and is still going strong. And yes, did we say that the views around are simply fantastic?

Highlights:-
Rameswaram – Longest corridor among all Hindu temples in India
Dhanushkodi – Lord Rama and his army built Ram Setu (Last Land of India)
Witness the memorial and home of 11th President of India (Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam)
Ramanathaswamy Temple which was dedicated to God Shiva
Pamban Bridge – India’s First Sea Bridge started in 1914

Important Note:
We strongly recommend to all the participants to do a COVID test before travelling to this tour
We also recommend to all the participants to give the RT-PCR test 96 hours before the travel and carry COVID negative certificates with them.

Doing a test strongly reduces the probability of participants coming to the mountains as asymptomatic carriers. It makes it a lot safer for all the participants and staff in the team.
Each member of the group (participants/leaders/ clients & staff) wears protective masks while interacting with each other. Do carry few unused, disposable masks.

It is strongly recommended to wear caps, full sleeves shirts and full trousers and shoes for adventure activities. It reduces exposure of your body parts.

It should be ascertained from the participants that they are not residing / have not traveled in a containment zone and have not come in contact with any person who was tested positive in the last 14 days.

Ascertain whether any participant has any symptoms of Influenza like illness (ILI) like fever, dry cough, weakness, severe body ache etc. at the time of beginning of activity. If it is so then he/she should be asked not to participate in the activity and be evacuated on medical grounds and should be asked to report to the local health authority with his own expenses.

Strictly avoid eating gutkha, pan masala, cigarette or sniffing which induces spitting, coughing or sneezing.

Avoid touching external surfaces and touching your face when outdoors.

If the location of your adventure activity is too crowded then be prepared to leave or wait for the crowd to disperse/for your turn.

It is mandatory that a participant informs the organizers if he tests positive for Covid within 14 days of returning from adventure activity. It will help the organizers to inform and alert all other persons in the group, so that they can follow the medical/government norms in this regard. Here it is absolutely essential that the participant observes transparency and informs the organizers/group leaders about his Covid test results.

Fitness & Health – Though this is a fun-filled trip, it demands a good amount of physical fitness because of its high altitude and thinner oxygen levels. If you are under medication, please carry your medicines. During the trip, your Trikon buddy will have over the counter medication for temporary treatment, so do give a heads up to them if you need any medical assistance.
