Rock Garden and Sukhna Lake Tour

After meeting at the gates of Rock Garden at the selected start time, we begin our tour of the park, where we will see thousands of sculptures made with recycled materials. You will learn how, in 1960, a local artist started to clean up a small forest to create artworks with collected bits of glass and plastic.

The project of Nek Chand features paths, waterfalls, and sculptures, becoming a city symbol. More than 5000 people visit Rock Garden every day.

After Rock Garden, we will explore Nagar Van forest park, also known as City Forest. This area is ideal for hiking, featuring numerous trails, a bridge, and a hidden cabin in this tranquil city corner. The only sounds here are from over 20 bird species inhabiting the area.

Next, we head to the Lake Sukhna reservoir, created in 1958 by damming a water stream from the Sivalik Hills at the foot of the Himalayas. This area has become a popular recreation and leisure space for Chandigarh residents.

After around 2 hours touring the parkland areas, our tour concludes on the shores of Lake Sukhna.
