Field Study Centre

The A Rocha field study center adjoins the northern range of Bannerghatta National Park. Located 20 kms south of the center of Bangalore, the center is our national office and the national headquarters for India, it allows us to mobilise our work right out of the heart of the landscape.Another satellite centre is located in Lakshmipura – a village across the state border in Tamil Nadu – it is used primarily for mobilizing our operations into the Hosur forest division and its connected habitats.

The A Rocha Field Study Centre or AFSC as we like to call it, is a space that exudes serenity due to its proximity to the national park. It is a space for everyone, as this 3-acre forested escape offers visitors the opportunity to engage in conservation and environmental activities, experience rural living and observe local birdlife and wildlife.. Our list of visitors includes researchers studying ecological and human communities, wildlife and nature enthusiasts looking to spend time in nature, and families and groups who are keen on engaging in outdoor activities and education.
