Do you recall the joy of tossing pebbles into a nearby lake, eagerly watching the ripples spread across the calm water? Those were the days when nature enveloped us, and exploring rocky terrain and wilderness with friends was the highlight of our vacations. These activities not only fueled our sense of adventure but also instilled in us the resilience to face challenges head-on.
Life back then was intimately connected to farms, lakes, forests, and mountains. Drinking water straight from a river or a lake felt completely safe. Remember the thrill of hanging onto the descending roots of a banyan tree, swinging from one end to the other? It was a truly exhilarating experience, a testament to the simplicity and wonder of life.
Venturing into the forest without fearing wild animals was a common occurrence. People would leisurely stroll, observing wildlife from a safe distance.This commitment has given rise to the development of our expansive forest area, with a goal to afforest approximately 45% of the site, equivalent to roughly 3 acres.
The envisioned experiences include cycling and jogging trails meandering through the lush forest, a natural pond for camping, a multi-purpose court, kiosks, and an open-air theater. Additionally, we plan to intersperse the forest with local and seasonal fruit-bearing trees, enhancing the natural beauty of the surroundings.
The forest at Rurban Lofts is designed to provide a peaceful retreat for you to re-establish a deep connection with nature, whether in solitude or in the company of friends and family. Enjoy a leisurely stroll, inhaling the pure oxygen generated by the indigenous trees, or opt for an overnight camping experience with your loved ones by the serene lake; the choice is entirely yours. We believe in bringing back the charm of those simpler times, when nature was not just a backdrop but an integral part of our daily lives. Join us on this journey of rediscovery at Rurban Lofts and embrace the serenity of our forest area
