After Diwali, here's why you must consider camping and adventure sports as a refreshing getaway

As Diwali season arrives in October, the air is crisp and everyone is preparing to celebrate in traditional style. But what comes after the Diwali parties? While the city gets polluted, the weather becomes inviting, making us crave sunny outdoors and fresco lunches.

Why not add a twist to your outdoor lunch plans? Consider camping picnics in your city suburb with action packed adventure activities and outdoor games and challenges that energise you and let you fully enjoy the season. After all, we all want to shed those holiday calories.

Here are five reasons to choose adventure outings over sit down cappuccinos this winter.

1. Ditch that lunch at mall for a farm fresh outdoor picnic

The weather is getting better. Instead of catching up with friends and family over typical Sunday lunches, how about spending a day outdoors with your favourite people. New age camping and picnic sites in your city outskirts serve fresh, farm cooked meals perfectly laid out in outdoor picnic settings to make it a great Sunday lunch.

After the festive chaos of Diwali, the mind and soul need a break from city noise and pollution. Camping in serene outdoor surroundings, with nature¡¯s vibrant colours, even for a day detoxes lungs, heart and soul to provide a holistic refreshment. Such getaways for a day, evening or night are easily available at 60-90 minute drivable destinations from all Indian cities.

Affecting 40.3% Indians, obesity is an epidemic caused by our sedentary lifestyle choices.
