Volunteer at the most beautiful eco glamping site in Manali, Himalayas, India

Details

• 

  Description

  We are India's first Eco-friendly glamping site in the Himalayas located near the adventure capital of India, Manali, Himachal Pradesh. It was created to share the healing and rejuvenating effects of the Himalayas while glamping in Geodesic domes and a refurbished 50 yrs old Mud home – a unique experience of spending holidays in comfort and authenticity.
  Here you are in direct contact with nature, enjoying the mountains in their full glory and soaking in the dazzle of the night sky, as you lay cozily tucked inside your tastefully styled Dome abode or the Mud Home.
  Here, we craft an experience for you to be touched by the intense and serene beauty of the landscape through various activities and events while giving you the time and space of just being “Yourself”.
  If there is one thing that led all five of us to come together and think of creating something magical and blissful, it was our love and passion for mountains and the gratitude we feel for everything that they have brought into our lives. As we traveled far and wide across the Himalayas, the question arose as to what draws us back to these mighty mountains and that is what we wanted to share with the world at large.
  
  Our story is that of romantic mountain lovers who decided to introduce a new way of enjoying the absolutely beautiful yet fragile mountain ecosystem. We got the Geodesic Domes to India where one can stay in comfort with minimal disturbance to nature and surroundings.
