VANA DARSHAN

Vana Darshan is a scheme of the Forest Department to encourage the public to appreciate the fact that man is an integral part of nature and cannot exist divorced from it. To make this happen, he should be able to meaningfully interact with the forests, which are a part of his surroundings.
The object of the scheme is to enlist public involvement and co-operation in nature conservation efforts and popularise nature education to help they appreciate the importance of conservation in relation to human betterment, to kindle human interest in out biological diversity and its importance, to enrich visitor experience, to make available educational materials, and to collaborate with sister organisations in conservation planning and execution.
The Forest Department arranges treks and camps in several areas within our forests for various target groups. Family camps for nature education are also arranged.
