Ride for the Wild — Project Turtle

Itinerary

Day byday.

Arrive, meet the group, and understand why this trip exists. An introduction to Project Turtle — the community, the habitat it protects, and the challenges it faces. Simple camp setup. An evening around the fire with the local project team. Stories, questions, real answers.

A morning ride through the landscape at the heart of this project — terrain that tells the story of a community living alongside the wild. Village stops that are not on any tourist map. People who don't often receive visitors, and are honest about what that means. Afternoon: a guided environmental awareness session in the field — not a lecture, but a conversation with people who understand this land.

Leave the bikes behind for a day and walk the habitat that the project exists to protect. A guided nature hike with the community team. Camp under open sky. A night with no electricity, no traffic — just the sounds of a place that is being actively cared for.

A final morning ride. A closing session with the community team — what the project needs next, how this group's presence has mattered, and what each traveller can carry back. Depart with more than photographs. Depart with purpose, and perhaps a reason to return.

Kavita, Founder & Lead Guide of The Mountain Child

Your guide

Personally ledby Kavita.

Born in Haridwar, raised between the Ganges and her grandmother's hill house. Trained as a trek leader, then stepped away from agency tourism in 2019 to build something smaller, slower, more honest. The Mountain Child became real in 2021.

She knows every trail, every village elder, every hidden spot. But more importantly, she knows when to push you forward and when to let the mountains do the teaching.

I travel with The Mountain Child for seven years every year. I love the expertise, the local community Kavita makes us part of, the spiritual side where she guides us, her happiness in showing us the beautiful Indian nature, and the higher meaning she gives every step.
