The Trust works for the rural people of the Little Rann of Kutch spread in about 5000 square kilometers, the Rann is called Little in comparison to the Greater Rann of Kutch spread in 7000 sq. km. The little Rann is quite different from Greater Rann. Little Rann offers an array of opportunities right from its mesmerizing fauna, to the host of plants and trees to the many mirages. It is house to one of the country’s largest wildlife reserves, the Wild Ass Sanctuary, where the topography varies from large marshlands to brown-grey patches of soil with a few small thorny shrubs. Flamingos and demoiselle cranes can generally be spotted in hundreds at some water bodies. One can spot Indian wild ass and white-footed fox in the vast areas of golden ground in Rann. The area is also speckled with Bullock Carts and Salt Pans that look like heaps and heaps of snow.

The Little Rann of Kutch is surrounded by Maliya, Halvad, Dhrangadhra, Dasada, Patan, Sankheshvar, Santalpur, Radhanpur, Rapar.

Dominated by largely pastoral tribes, this land is a hallmark of wonderful, carefully preserved traditions. One will find versatile tribes including Mirs, Rabaris, Bharvads, Bhavayas, Gadhavi, Vadis (snake charmer), Stone Artists and Agariyas among others.
