    You can reach Devprayag by a short 70 km drive from Rishikesh; the roads are winding but the ride takes about 2 hours. In Rishikesh, public buses and shared taxis are plentiful, and you can hop on a rafting launch right from the Ganga bank. If you want a place that keeps you close to the river and the ashrams, consider staying at Raga On the Ganges it puts you right on the waterfront and gives easy access to both the spiritual spots and the adventure launch points.
