ON A NATURE TRAIL

-

Bringing city kids closer to nature, Camp Anubhav presented by Rocksport Adventure helps inculcate life skills, especially confidence among children. “Participat­ing in outdoor camps builds energy and inspires the spirit of exploring the unknown. The good part is that parents are becoming more aware about the positive aspects of adventure camping,” says Piyush Khandelwal, Founder Director, Rocksport Adventure. This summer, the camps will be organised at Nainital, Shimla, Jim Corbett and Rani Chauri. These camps are not just about fun and games, but also focus on training techniques to survive in the jungle. Trained instructor­s teach participan­ts the basics of surviving and facing adversitie­s in the great outdoors. So, one learns how to read maps, rope climbing, rifle shooting, horse riding, building paper shelters and lighting a camp fire. All of the staff members here are certified instructor­s from prestigiou­s institutes such as Nehru Institute of Mountainee­ring (Uttarkashi). Instructor­s also educate participan­ts through games and interactiv­e activities about environmen­tal awareness.

Age group 9 to 16 years Cost Rs 1,500 per day
