OUR
STORY
'Great things start with a small step! and we believe those steps are of people who are passionate, hardworking, determined and people who want change to happen'
This is our STORY!
We are a Team of Nature conservation experts, Space Scientists and Educators and Defence and Adventure Travel experts who came along to build a space for experiential learning through public engagement.
It all started with the idea to engage public in Nature conservation projects, promote Space Education and train youth and civilians in tactical defence and national integrity. We started working from a private farm land at Khopoli, 80kms from Mumbai and conducted several Science and Nature workshops.
With overwhelming response from schools and general public we started in May 2018 and developed the place and implemented the Bio Diversity Project for 4 years before re-opening it for public. MahaPark is not just an 'Eco Tourism Park' but a conservation project and education centre. MahaPark is managed and supported by people from all walks of life from Scientists and Nature Conservationists to School Principals and Parents.
We invite you to visit us, spend time with us doing something awesome and
with a purpose!
