Three-Phase Development Plan

The tourism-related development around the Dharoi region will be carried out in three phases at a total cost of Rs 1,100 crore. The Chief Minister visited the site to gain firsthand information about the projects and provided necessary guidance to the officials concerned.

Key Attractions

The development projects include an adventure water sports arena, laser show, amphitheater, botanical garden, earth experience park, Naad Brahm Upavan, wind, sun, and sky experience parks, island gateway and jetty, and an open green park, among others. These projects aim to transform the dam area into a major economic force in north Gujarat.

Boosting Tourism

By developing spiritual and adventure tourism, eco and recreational activities, the Dharoi Dam area is poised to witness a significant boost in tourism. This development will not only attract visitors but also create employment opportunities and contribute to the overall economic growth of the region.
