Young Naturalists

In the Aravalis

We invite young explorers to reconnect with nature by getting to know the Aravali Mountains — a range older than the Himalayas themselves. Through stories, hikes in the hills, and creative exploration, we will move beyond simply looking at the mountains to truly understanding why they matter. This is a journey of curiosity, connection, and care.

Where Young Explorers Meet the Wild

Community & Connection

Individuals come together to form a tribe. We share intentions and stories, play together, listen to local folklore of the Aravalis, and sing the songs of the hills — slowly weaving a sense of belonging and shared purpose.

The Aravali Immersion

We hike these ancient hills and begin to observe deeply - noticing plants, leaves, bark, and textures; smelling wild herbs; foraging for edible plants; listening to birdsong; and spotting wildlife. This is about learning to be present and attuned to the living world around us.

The Mud Mural

After returning from the hills, we transform our experiences into art. Using natural mud and earth, we create a textured wall mural that tells the story this tribe wants to leave behind.
It is a joyful, hands-on way to express the feelings, patterns, and discoveries gathered in the Aravalis.

Community Council

The tribe gathers for collective meaning-making. The tribe take on different roles — stewards of the land, business owners, native trees, wild animals, water streams — and enter into a shared dialogue. Through this, they explore multiple perspectives and come to understand the interconnectedness of the Aravali ecosystem and the human world it.
