Green Heartfulness Run | Kalimpong
Find Your Pace. Feel the Change.
Green Heartfulness Run 2026, Kalimpong – Run 5K or 10K, Grow Forests, Shape a Greener Tomorrow.
The Green Heartfulness Run is more than a marathon; it marks the start of an annual movement towards healthier lives and a greener planet. Set against the beautiful hills of Kalimpong, it brings people together through fitness, community and a shared commitment to nature.
Our vision goes beyond planting a few trees. It is about nurturing ecosystems, restoring green spaces and building thriving forests that future generations can inherit. Every step is a reminder that meaningful change takes collective effort, patience and consistency.
This vision resonates with the philosophy of Heartfulness, a non-profit organisation that encourages harmony and well-being through the practice of meditation and a deeper connection with oneself and the world around us. Extending this philosophy to the environment, Forests by Heartfulness works towards restoring degraded landscapes and building biodiverse ecosystems through native, rare and endangered tree species.
What began in 2019 with a symbolic plantation of 64,000 trees across 64 cities has grown into a nationwide ecological movement. Working across 12 states, Forests by Heartfulness has undertaken large-scale restoration projects, including transforming 1,400 acres of barren land at Kanha Shanti Vanam in Telangana into a thriving green ecosystem. Its work goes beyond plantation drives, encompassing native nurseries, water restoration, biodiversity and community participation, with a vision to plant 30 million rare, endangered and threatened saplings by 2027.
Beyond the forests themselves, this initiative also creates opportunities for local communities to participate in nurturing their natural surroundings, encouraging environmental awareness and fostering a sense of shared responsibility. It is about creating something that continues to grow, flourish and give back long after the planting is done.
With 5K and 10K categories, the Green Heartfulness Run welcomes everyone to join this growing movement. Because we aren't just running for a day; we're building a greener tomorrow, year after year.
