₹4 Crore Eco-Park in Hadeta to Offer Peace, Adventure & Local Livelihoods
Hamirpur, 19 July 2026 – Imagine waking up to the whisper of pine trees, the chirping of exotic birds, and the sight of mist rolling over emerald hills. For lakhs of tourists who flock to Himachal Pradesh every year, this dream is about to become a reality in a quiet, offbeat corner of the state.
While the bustling crowds of Manali and Shimla continue to draw visitors, Chief Minister Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu is turning his attention to the state’s lesser-known low-altitude treasures—places like district Hamirpur that are often overlooked but hold immense potential. And the first major fruit of this vision is blooming in the remote village of Hadeta.
Nestled along the Nadoun-Salooni-Diyotisiddh main road, this hidden gem is being transformed into a magnificent eco-tourism park. Set against a backdrop of dense forests and gentle hills, the site is designed to offer a serene escape from the chaos of city life. Chief Minister Sukhu laid its foundation stone in January 2025 as part of the Economic Development and Livelihood Creation Project (Navjivan), and the Rural Development Department, in collaboration with the Forest Department, is now racing to put the finishing touches on this ₹4 crore project.
Spread over approximately 125 kanals of land, the park isn’t just about scenic beauty. It’s a thoughtfully curated experience for travelers of all ages. Visitors can look forward to cozy cottages, a cafeteria with local flavors, dedicated yoga points to rejuvenate the soul, a children’s park for the little ones, scenic walking trails, watchtowers for panoramic views, and even whimsical animal structures for photo ops.
But this park is as much about the people as it is about the views. In a heartwarming move, the government has ensured that the local community is the heart of this project. The cottages and cafeteria will be operated by villagers themselves, while dedicated shop spaces will provide a platform for women’s self-help groups to sell their homemade and handcrafted products. This isn’t just a tourist spot—it’s a sustainable economic engine designed to keep the village thriving.
Strategically located on the main route connecting the revered religious sites of Jwalamukhi, Nadoun, and Diotsiddh, the park is poised to become the perfect pitstop for pilgrims and leisure travelers alike.
“This park is our way of blending nature with nurture,” said DFO Ankit Singh, who is overseeing the final stages of construction. “Most of the civil work is complete, and we are confident the doors will swing open very soon.”
With its breathtaking landscapes and community-first approach, Hadeta’s eco-park is more than just a new destination—it’s a promise of peaceful holidays, sustainable tourism, and a brighter future for its local families.
