Karma Lakelands is a 270-acre green destination on the Gurugram–Manesar stretch of NH 8, where golf fairways, lakes, meadows and over 2,50,000 trees replace the usual city skyline. This guide covers its activities, family experiences, day outing possibilities, location and booking process — plus what to confirm with the resort before you plan, since access to some facilities depends on your stay, membership or booking arrangement.
Karma Lakelands is a 270-acre golf resort and green estate located within Gurgaon, yet it feels a world away from it. Roughly 72% of the campus is under lush green landscapes — tree-lined avenues, meadows, lawns and water bodies that together shelter more than 141 species of birds. Peacocks are a common sight around the fairways, and the estate’s quiet roads are made for slow walks and unhurried rides rather than traffic.
Sustainability is not a slogan here; it is the operating model. The resort treats over four lakh litres of water every day, meeting about 80% of its irrigation needs from recycled water, and draws roughly 26% of its energy from solar power. These eco-practices have earned the property recognitions such as India’s Most Eco-Friendly / Sustainable Golf Club (Golf Industry Association, 2022) and the Champion Award from the Responsible Tourism Society of India.
Accommodation ranges from villas and suites to the boutique Karma Chalets, while Klub Karma serves as the activity hub with a gymnasium, pools, sports arenas, boating, event spaces and multiple dining options, including the all-day restaurant On Kourse and AK’s Cocktail Bar overlooking the greens. Together, they suit everything from a weekend getaway to a planned family day out.
Most day-outing options around Gurgaon are dry and dusty play zones. Karma Lakelands offers the opposite: a cultivated green landscape with real infrastructure — paved cycling routes, a boating lake, a proper sports zone and sit-down dining. That mix makes it worth considering for:
Children get a play area, farm animals and open lawns; adults get golf, wellness and dining — all inside one secure, green campus.
Lakeside paths, quiet greeneries and resort dining make it an easy, scenic escape from the city without a long drive.
Pickleball, badminton, table tennis, padel and boating keep a full group active, with courts and slots best arranged in advance.
141+ bird species, peacocks, deer and thriving water bodies reward slow walkers and birdwatchers, especially in the early morning.
A 4.5 km cycling route, obstacle course, gym and water sports give active visitors plenty to structure a day around.
Chalets, villas, spa-style slow mornings and golf-side dining suit weekenders from Delhi NCR who want a proper reset.
One thing to note before you plan: Karma Lakelands is primarily a stay, membership and events destination. Day-visit experiences are generally arranged through the resort’s current access policy, so it is worth confirming eligibility and activity access directly with the resort while planning your day outing.
From cycling and boating to farm life and golf, the activities at Karma Lakelands are built around its green landscape. Here is what the resort officially offers — and what you should confirm before you go.
Pedal along 4.5 kilometres of wide, traffic-free roads inside the campus — one of the most refreshing outdoor activities at Karma Lakelands. Bicycles and fat bikes can be rented on site, so you can explore shaded avenues, meadows and lake views at an easy pace.
Rental charges, if applicable, should be confirmed at the resort.
The lake beside the golf course offers a calm boating and canoeing experience, with slots that are booked at the resort. Drifting past green banks and birdlife feels remarkably unhurried for a destination so close to Gurgaon.
Boating runs on booked slots — confirm timing, availability and charges in advance.
At The Village, children and adults can meet friendly goats, cows and hens, feed them and even learn how a cow is milked. A small apiary shows how the estate’s organic honey is made — simple, hands-on fun that children remember.
Access is tied to your visit arrangement; confirm timings with the resort.
An in-house nursery and kitchen garden supply seasonal produce straight to the resort’s kitchens. Walking through the growing beds shows where your food comes from and offers practical ideas on composting and organic living for families and school groups alike.
With more than 141 bird species recorded on campus, Karma Lakelands rewards early risers and patient watchers. Peacocks roam the fairways, and Haryana Tourism notes the landscape is shared with deer and other wildlife. Carry binoculars and take the quieter trails.
Klub Karma, the estate’s activity hub, offers indoor and outdoor swimming pools. The resort’s signature floating breakfast is served here, turning a regular swim into a small occasion.
Pool access is linked to your stay, membership or booking arrangement — confirm the terms while reserving.
A dedicated play zone keeps younger guests busy with slides, swings and a trampoline, set in the open air close to the greenery. An outdoor gym stands nearby, so adults can squeeze in a workout while the children play.
The Sports Junction brings the group together with pickleball, badminton, table tennis, foosball, chess and pool, while a professionally designed padel court adds a fast-paced option for competitive friends.
Padel carries an additional charge as per the resort’s official information; court availability is best confirmed in advance.
Golf shapes much of the Karma Lakelands landscape — undulating fairways and well-placed lakes that Haryana Tourism describes as shared with wandering peacocks and birdlife. Casual players can try the Klub Karma golf clinic or the indoor golf simulator.
The Karma Golf Academy offers structured lessons; ask the resort for current coaching and green fees.
New to the estate? The Karma Experience Tour takes you around the resort’s favourite corners — the organic gardens, the villas, the farm animals and the eco-initiatives that make this campus different. It is a relaxed way to get oriented.
Check with the resort whether the tour is currently running and whether it is chargeable.
A family day out works best when every age group has something to look forward to, and this is where Karma Lakelands’ mix of green space and structured activities earns its reputation. Younger children can spend unhurried time at the play area’s slides, swings and trampoline, then meet goats, cows and hens at The Village — for many kids, the farm animals are the whole trip. Older children and parents can take the 4.5 km cycling route together, paddle a boat on the lake (subject to booked slots) or settle into a badminton and table tennis session at the Sports Junction.
Nature does the rest: quieter trails for birdwatching, peacocks near the fairways and a long family lunch to wind down. Activities are spread across a large campus, so plan fewer things and enjoy them properly — and confirm slots, charges and day-visitor access when you book.
Karma Lakelands does not publish a standard day-picnic price list. Access is generally arranged through stays at the villas and Karma Chalets, Klub Karma memberships or specific bookings — and some activities carry separate charges.
