There’s a 100-acre nature camp that’s recently been inaugurated in Bhondsi near GGN and it looks pretty awesome! It was launched on June 17th and we’re pretty excited to visit this place that doesn’t seem like it’s a part of Delhi NCR at all! 

With a view to encourage people to interact with nature and wildlife, a 100-acre nature camp was inaugurated in Bhondsi by Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar recently. The camp, which lies just 10 kms from the city, has eco-lodges, tents and tree huts set up in the middle of the Aravalli hills.

The camp has been carved out of Bharat Yatra Kendra - a 600-acre ashram that belonged to former Prime Minister Chandra Shekhar. The ashram is now under the Forest Department of Haryana.

The area is to be equipped with a rainwater harvesting system, solar water pump and composting and water recycling models. A 70-acre lake will also be revived to recharge the groundwater, according to Forest Department officials. To avoid pollution, bicycles and e-rickshaws will also be provided to visitors.

This camp has been set up to give people an opportunity to experience nature, realise the importance of wildlife conservation and natural resource management. 

So head on over and have a great time guys!
