Neeraj Pathania – Co-Founder & Host, Atulya Kanchi Camp
Neeraj Pathania
For decades, Neeraj has wandered across India’s diverse landscapes — from the Himalayan peaks to the deserts, rivers, and jungles. His life has been woven with adventure, conservation, and film.
As a Location Manager for National Geographic, Neeraj worked on multiple projects, including an epic 1,000 km elephant journey across southern India. He led the first UK expedition into Arunachal Pradesh and appeared in Mark Shand’s legendary travel book “River Dog.”
Each of his journeys has carried a purpose — to protect elephants, support mahouts, and keep their stories alive.
Today, through Atulya Kanchi Camp, Neeraj shares this lifelong passion by crafting immersive experiences that celebrate the wild and the human spirit within it.
Arti Pathania
The heart behind Atulya Kanchi Camp, Arti has shaped every detail with care — from its architecture and interiors to its kitchen and gardens.
Her design philosophy is simple: use what the land gives, honor local traditions, and let nature lead the way.
She manages our organic farming projects, ensuring that Kanchi’s Kitchen serves food that comes straight from the fields — rich in flavor, heart, and heritage.
Arti also curates the Atulya Home Shop, a small boutique within the camp that reflects her love for local craftsmanship.
Arti believes that sustainability is not a concept, but a way of living — one that nurtures community, preserves culture, and brings people together.
Our Philosophy
We believe in supporting local communities, protecting forests, and honoring every life that shares this land with us.
Our philosophy is simple — Live in the wild, but leave it even more beautiful.
