Description
We are the Earth tech Pod Amidst dense Wilderness
A CRITICAL MILESTONE
EN ROUTE OUR JOURNEY TO MINIMALISTIC LIFESTYLE - our conscious efforts towards
Responsible sustainable co-existence with nature
We are in a village located in Panchgani - famous hill station in Maharashtra, India.
Panchgani is nestled in the middle of five hills in the Western Ghats alias Sahyādri mountain ranges. A sought out Tourists destination , Panchgani is rich in bio diversity, is well-known for its impressive tableland and string of mesas, and is a popular getaway for tourists from Mumbai and Pune
The best time to visit Panchgani is during the winter season up to the onset of summer. The months from September to April see moderate temperatures and pleasant weather conditions, making it the most comfortable time to explore
