Cycle Kerala and experience the itinerary that people are going bananas for!
Cycle through the wildlife-packed Western Ghats, the spicy Cardamom Country and the beautiful backwaters of Kerala to the Mirari Beach, on this exquisite challenge.
Setting off from Kochi, you’ll tackle tough climbs through Munnar’s misty coffee and tea plantations, to the top of the Kannan Devan Hills in the Western Ghats.
The breath-taking panoramas and ample wildlife spotting opportunities are well worth the climb.
The Western Ghats is renowned for its vast biodiversity, home to thousands of plants and hundreds of animals, including 325 endangered species. Keep your eyes peeled every pedal of the way. If you’re lucky, you may spot leopards, elephants and nearly fifty different types of butterfly!
Then you’ll spice up your cycle as we skirt Periyar National Park through the cardamom growing Idukki Region.
Then it’s one last stretch across the palm-lined lagoons, islands and canals of the backwaters. You’ll get awesome insight into the coconut catching and coir communities, before reaching a paradise finish at Marari Beach.
