This trip is ideal for cyclists looking for a challenge with stunning scenic beauty and a variety of landscapes. We will cycle through the best of South India whilst enjoying many highlights of Kerala along the way.
Welcome to beautiful Kerala, popularly known as “God’s Own Country.” Nestled between the pristine waters of the Arabian sea on the west and the lush Western Ghat mountains on the east, Kerala’s intense network of rivers and lagoons, thick forests, exotic wildlife, tranquil stretches of emerald backwaters and a long shoreline of serene beaches make it a traveller’s paradise. The rich cultural heritage, the dance form and the essence of music are so impressive that you will be spell-bound by its magic.
Literally, Kerala means, “the land of coconuts”. “Kera” in Malayalam (the language of Kerala) means coconut and you can find coconut trees everywhere. The state has such wonderful and magnificent attractions beyond one’s imagination, and many of these you can explore and enjoy on this amazing cycling tour.
