Andhra Pradesh Forest Dept. to Launch Zipline at Mulapadu Eco-Tourism Park on Dec 1
Imagine a new adventure park where you can fly through the trees like a bird!
The forest rangers in a place called Mulapadu are setting up a special ride called a zipline.
It's like a long wire stretched between two hills.
You'll get to zip across from one hill to the other, high above the ground.
While you're riding, you can see all the beautiful trees and green plants below.
If you're lucky, you might even spot some deer or peacocks!
This new ride will open on December 1st.
It's a fun way for people to enjoy nature and learn about protecting the environment.
The money to build it came from companies wanting to help the community, and it will also give jobs to people who live nearby.
Andhra Pradesh Forest Department is launching a 360-meter two-way zipline at Mulapadu eco-tourism park.
The new adventure sport is set to be inaugurated on December 1.
The zipline connects two hillocks, offering tourists scenic views of the forest terrain and wildlife.
The project is funded by CSR funds from private firms and aims to promote eco-tourism and environmental awareness.
A ticket cost of ₹350 to ₹400 is planned, with the project creating employment for 8-10 local individuals.
