Who We Are
Wildpaw Adventures was founded in 2001 with a simple idea — to learn through travel. What began as a small nature and adventure company has grown into a trusted name in experiential travel across India. Our purpose has always been to help people discover life through adventure and understand India through its incredible biodiversity.
At Wildpaw Adventures, our unique strength lies in customisation. Every journey is thoughtfully designed to match the traveller’s curiosity, comfort, and learning goals. Whether it’s exploring dense forests, trekking across rugged terrains, or watching wildlife in their natural habitat, we make sure every experience becomes a story worth telling.
Our mission goes beyond travel. We aim to build awareness about nature, its conservation, and our shared responsibility toward the environment. Each of our programs fosters education, empathy, and environmental consciousness — values that define who we are and what we stand for.
Wildpaw Corp – Learning Beyond Classrooms and Workspaces
Our sister concern, Wildpaw Corp, extends our philosophy to schools and corporate organisations. We design objective-based workshops, outdoor learning programs, nature trails, wildlife tours, and adventure camps across India. These experiences are guided by seasoned naturalists, educators, and adventure professionals who believe learning is most powerful when done outside four walls.
From team-building camps for professionals to environmental education modules for students, every program blends adventure with purpose — promoting teamwork, leadership, and environmental stewardship.
Our Founder – Sushma Mishra
A biologist by education and an adventurer by passion, Sushma Mishra has dedicated over two decades to connecting people with nature. After completing her post-graduation in Biology with a focus on animal physiology, she began teaching at renowned institutions such as St. Xavier’s College and Bhavan’s College, Mumbai. Her curiosity for the natural world and commitment to hands-on learning inspired her to take education beyond the classroom — into the wild.
An avid traveller, wildlife photographer, and adventure enthusiast, Sushma has explored the diverse ecosystems of India, observing and documenting wildlife closely. Her experiences led to the birth of Wildpaw Adventures, a platform to share her learnings and ignite the same passion in others.
With more than 25 years of outdoor experience, she has conducted numerous nature camps, wildlife expeditions, and Outdoor Management Programs for reputed corporates as a certified Rutgers University Trainer. Her belief in experiential education continues to shape Wildpaw’s philosophy — that travel is not just recreation, but a journey of understanding and growth.
