Off-road driver training academy - Mahindra Adventure
India’s first Off-Road Driving Training Academy, Mahindra Adventure lets you get behind the wheel of the legendary Mahindra Thar and learn the art of off-roading from the country’s best instructors.
The flagship 28-acre academy is set in the lush Western Ghats of Igatpuri—a terrain that’s been home, testing ground, and playground for both the Thar and the Thar Roxx. With over a decade of experience and 50,000+ participants trained, the Academy now operates in six locations: Igatpuri, Chennai, Coorg, Bangalore, J&K, and Jaisalmer.
Each academy has its own fleet of off-road-ready Mahindra SUVs. Just book your slot online and show up—no vehicle required. Depending on the course, you’ll start with a theory session before heading out to tackle real obstacles: steep descents, sharp inclines, crazy side angles, and more—all designed to teach and sharpen your off-road skills. And at the end? A Mahindra Off-Road Certification that proves your skills and progression.
Ready to take control? Your off-road learning starts here.

What I find really interesting is that unless you keep your skills current, you will tend to forget basic things. One needs to keep doing these things often.
