Family Roots: Two Landscapes

Family Roots: Two Landscapes

Coorg

About This Experience

Not a family outing. A return to what family feels like.

Across 400+ acres of untouched Coorg wilderness, the rainforests of Poomaale and the open hillsides of Hammiyala - Family Roots invites families to slow down, reconnect, and grow a little wilder together.
Even if you’ve visited Coorg before, you’ve never seen forests like these.

This isn’t about ticking off activities. It’s about rediscovering each other: through walks that spark wonder, meals that stretch into conversations, and moments that blur the line between learning and play.

This special 4-day, 3-night edition of Family Roots spans two of our collectives - the lush rainforests of Poomaale and the open hillsides of Hammiyala, offering families “two distinct sides of Coorg” in one immersive experience.

Designed for connection and curiosity, you’ll explore mist-kissed trails, silent grasslands, and thriving ecosystems through expert-facilitated, child-friendly activities: forest walks, nature-art, stream picnics, star-lit evenings, and more. With two nights in Poomaale and a night of gentle, comfortable camping in Hammiyala, families slow down, share stories, and let moments unfold naturally.

All consciously designed and gently guided by expert facilitators and naturalists. Here, nothing is random. Everything is designed to nurture a deeper bond with nature, and each other.

Here, families slow down, listen closer, and grow a little wilder together.

Exclusive to only 6 families. Grow roots, not just memories.
