Tourists at the ALURKAR RESORTS experience and learn more about the village lifestyle. They understand growing, harvesting & processing of grains by farmers and other seasonal activities & local celebrations.
Most of the activities at the ALURKAR RESORTS are managed with the help of local villagers. Agro-Tourism especially strengthens farmer families by way of earning extra income through tourist visits.
...hence, the idea of Agro-Tourism/Eco-tourism was thought of to protect the present as well as the future interests of our planet Earth. The concept of Agro-Tourism is considered as the biggest alternative to harmful tourism practices. On one side it provides a chance for the tourists to come closer to mother nature and on the other, it helps them to understand the vast potential in nature, villages and the farmers.
In the first ever attempt in this region, ALURKAR RESORTS is developed to combine and implement the concept of Agro-tourism in the Bugate Alur village on Nipani-Amboli road, in Belgaum. The idea of ALURKAR RESORTS was well thought of by a small group of nature lovers to bridge the gap between tourism and eco-friendliness.
We have a variety of plantations like medicinal plants, Floriculture and Horticulture farms. These are grown with help from local villagers. Natural surroundings and hilltop location has added the spice in a beautiful view to this upcoming Agro-tourism resort.
Most of the activities at the ALURKAR RESORTS are managed with the help of local villagers. Agro-Tourism especially strengthens farmer families by way of earning extra income through tourist visits. Sometimes the tourists here are motivated to plow fields, to experience riding bullock-cart, understand the growing, harvesting & processing of grains by farmers and watch them perform other seasonal activities & local celebrations.
ALURKAR RESORTS provides tourists an opportunity to experience such a beautiful stay and especially gives a chance to the future generation to learn more about the village lifestyle and origin of what they eat - right from the farms to the table. It makes us think a little about protecting our precious planet, by widening our view towards our own life and the part that mother nature plays in it.
Interested tourists can also become part of the same initiative by collecting the plants from our small nursery and to plant this idea in their own gardens. We can also provide details of plants and trees growing in the resort premises.
Thank You.
