The Aravali Biodiversity Park, Gurgaon is dedicated to the creation, conservation and interpretation of forests native to the Aravali range. Once developed, the Aravali Biodiversity Park will give the citizens of Gurgaon access to 550 acres of pristine space and connect them with nature. The park will be a hub for leisure walks, jogging, trekking, bird watching, gardening and contemplation. The ‘milliontreesgurgaon’, aims at eventually transforming the Aravali Biodiversity Park, Gurgaon into a conservation sanctuary for birds, animals and plants.
