Every student should experience at least one trek before they graduate from the Lavasa campus.

Our Principles

  • Explore Safely
  • Respect Nature
  • Stay Together
  • Learn Through Experience
  • Leave No Trace

Our Signature Initiative

One Student, One Trek

Our long-term vision is to give every student at the Lavasa campus an opportunity to complete at least one official trek before graduation.

We want students to experience Lavasa beyond classrooms and buildings — to walk its trails, discover its waterfalls, climb its hills and experience its natural beauty.

Explore Lavasa. Experience Nature. Trek Together.

  • One Student.
  • One Experience.
  • One Trek.

Looking Ahead

Our Long-Term Goal

Lavasa Trekkers aims to become a lasting part of the student experience at the Lavasa campus.

We want students to leave the campus not only with academic memories, but also with memories of:

  • The hills they climbed.
  • The waterfalls they discovered.
  • The trails they explored.
  • The people they trekked with.
  • And the natural world they learned to protect.

Safety First

Trek Responsibly

Safety is at the centre of every official Lavasa Trekkers activity.

Before Every Trek, The Organisers Consider

  • Route difficulty
  • Weather conditions
  • Terrain and trail conditions
  • Water levels
  • Trek duration
  • Student experience
  • Faculty availability
  • Group size
  • Emergency accessibility

If conditions are considered unsafe, a trek may be modified, postponed, rerouted or cancelled.

Our Principle

Adventure is important.
Coming back safely is more important.

  • Respect wildlife and natural habitats

  • Leave natural spaces as they were found

Take memories. Leave only footprints.
