The project aims at restoring old paths in the Bandh–Shilli village tract. Volunteers take part in conservation activities, including physical tasks such as clearing trails and rebuilding dry stone walls
The project work involves conservation activities including manual work on development or restoration of old paths in the Shilli tract of this interior hilly area and will involve physical work: clearing paths, moving stones aside, rebuilding dry stone walls, put up signs, collected fallen fuel woods and enhancing the paved sections of the paths. Other activities will be planned keeping in view the flora and fauna of the area.
The project aims to create awareness and respect among youth towards local culture, nature and environment. During this project volunteers will live in lap of nature with just basic living facilities (Accommodation and toilets (Bath + WC)). We aim to provide an experience of living in wilderness with bare necessity and connecting with nature.
