WelcomHeritage has announced the launch of WelcomHeritage Arka Resort & Spa, Rishikesh, a tranquil retreat set against the backdrop of the Shivalik range
Spread across 3.5 acres at an elevation of 4,300 feet, the property is located at Patti Talla in Village Kund Silogi on Lansdowne Road in Yamkeshwar. The resort overlooks the blue-hued mountains, natural ponds (“kunds”), and the point where the Ganges transitions into the plains. The 30 km drive from Tapovan passes through the Rajaji National Park, known for its rich wildlife including endemic birds, deer and elusive leopards.
Inspired by the five elements of nature, Arka brings together contemporary comforts and Himalayan serenity. The resort features 25 chalets across four categories: 5 Deluxe Chalets, 6 Family Chalets, 13 Premium Chalets, and 1 Luxury Chalet with a private pool.
Speaking about the launch, Ashutosh Chhibba, CEO, WelcomHeritage Hotels, said, “WelcomHeritage Arka Resort & Spa represents our continued commitment to curating meaningful stays in India’s most inspiring landscapes. Rishikesh has long been a destination for wellness, spirituality and adventure, and Arka is designed to complement this setting with thoughtful hospitality, contemporary comforts, and a deep connection to nature. We believe the resort will resonate with travellers seeking tranquillity as well as those looking to explore the region’s rich natural and cultural heritage.”
