Rupnagar (Ropar) sits along the Sutlej River with the Bhakra-Nangal Dam complex nearby. The district has growing adventure-tourism potential (river rafting, kayaking, dam-tourism) but services are underdeveloped. A small operator running adventure-tourism services (Sutlej rafting, kayaking, riverside camping) plus dam-tourism coordination (visitor centre tours, photography services) captures both economies.
Capex of 12-25 lakh covers adventure equipment (rafts, kayaks, safety gear), certifications, vehicle, and 6 months of working capital. Punjab Tourism's adventure-tourism scheme plus MUDRA Tarun fund the build. Hard parts: international-standard safety certification (essential for premium pricing), seasonality (rafting May-Oct only), and dam-tourism licensing requirements. Realistic: 3-4 years to break-even with both streams developing together.
