Activities of Nature Clubs

Nature trails form an important activity in the nature camps organised by the forest department. In this, participants are taken into the forests after proper in-house briefing of do's and don'ts in the forests. These guided tours or nature trails enable the children and laymen to see and study the green splendor of Kerala. Nature photography is another way of appreciating nature's beauty and wonders. Kerala forests are an inexhaustible gold mine for nature photographers. Different levels of biological diversity can be experienced in the forests. The habitats from wet tropical to dry deciduous swamp to high altitude grassland… the possibilities are immense. Diversity of life forms inside the forests is demonstrated through bird and butterfly watching, This also enables one to sustain the spirit of conservation. " … In the end we will conserve only what we love, we will love only what we understand, we will understand only what we are taught…" (Baba Dioum)
