#TG Life
Island of Chorao
Soul Traveling will be exploring the mangrove forest at Chorao to understand its uniqueness, role in climate resilience and the life it supports. The trail will start at the Chorao ferry point near Patto-Ribandar, and then the group will explore this beautiful Island and its star attraction - The Salim Ali Bird sanctuary. The walk will begin in the envelope of the mangrove forest and soon one would be perking up their ears to the sounds of bird life teeming around. Come and learn that gooing lumps that look like active little volcanoes all along the pathway are actually mud crabs at work, the loud clickety clicks were the sounds made by fiddler crabs with their large single claws. Plus, one will get to see snails, barnacles and mud skippers. The trail will be held on Saturday June 29, 4pm-7 pm
Rains of Rachol
Rachol Village Walk takes you on a beautiful journey in the village of Rachol, situated on the banks of river Zuari. The lush green fields and the beautiful monuments take your breath away. The group explores the remains of what was a fortress in days gone by, and visit the Rachol Seminary , learning about this historic monument and the people who developed it. They are then greeted with the smell of freshly baked bread, and discover the process behind this when they visit a local bakery. Stories about Our Lady Of Snows, the oldest church of South Goa, are also included in this visit.
And of course, the innumerable birds in this area! The trail will be conducted by Architect Tallulah D’Silva on Saturday, June 29, 4pm -7pm
