Other than the varied adventure activities, Nature Trails also offers special plans and packages to bigger groups that makes it ideal for off-sites, school, and college trips. These plans often include a bunch of curated programs that are meant to strengthen team bonding and ensure that everyone has a gala time. We recommend adding conversations and music over a bonfire to conclude the day.

White Water Rafting At Kundalika River

If you're someone who loves sailing their way through river banks and waves with an added element of adrenaline, the white water rafting experience at Kundalika river is a definite must try. Trust the raft guides to make you lose your qualms or fears and enjoy the scenic view from this river flowing through the hills of Sahyadri to the Arabian Sea. You're likely to spot blackberry plantations among other beautiful sights of trees and bushes. Allow the giant leap of water (Rapid as they call it) wave in your raft's direction as you rhythmically row your way through it. This epic experience becomes even more beautiful when the chirping of the birds, hide-and-seek of the clouds, and swift breeze join the fun.
