Chinmay Divekar, Director
An ICWA and a Jamnalal Bajaj alumnus by training and an adventure lover by nature, it is his dream to make Nature Trails a premier brand of nature and adventure tourism in the country. He believes that the joy experienced while being in Nature and the challenges of doing adventure create a new paradigm in a persons understanding of himself, his world and its workings. And what better to do this than in the wild, virgin locals of Vikramgadh, Durshet, Sajan, Dabhosa and Tapola chosen by his father.
