SUMMIT OF PEACEu00a0
WHERE Tikona campsite
WHY IT WORKS Start the New Year differently, as the folks at Nature Knights have an interesting camping out party lined up — from a classic barbecue, campfire, buffet dinner to a Hawaiian theme! Far from the crowds, and amid the backdrop of this historic fort, laze around on hammocks, live in tents, go for a morning wal to swim in a nearby lake, soak in stunning mountain views and get some ‘me’ time too. Camping options are also available for the Christmas and New Year weekend (Dec 29-30).
YOU PAY Rs 3,950 (adult), Rs 1,700 (child)

WHERE:u00a0Khopoli and Kolad
WHY IT WORKS: Starry skies, morning treks to catch the first sunrise of 2013, campfires and BBQ — mark your date with the New Year in a different, serene landscape, far away from the crowds, pollution and noise. You can even opt for a round of white water rafting on the Kundalika River, if you’d like a few thrills to get into the mood for the New Year. This apart, tent stays and some good old fashioned bonhomie around campfires should make for a lovely break.
YOU PAY Khopoli: Rs 4,300 (adult), Rs 2,400 (child below 8 years); Kolad: Rs 3,800 (adult), Rs 2,200 (child under 8 years)
