South India: Cycling, Hiking & Kayaking in Kerala

Explore India as few others have ...

Kerala is truly God´s own country with the Arabian Sea to its west, the Western Ghats towering in the east and the state networked by forty-four rivers. Kerala enjoys unique geographical features that have made it one of the most sought after tourist destinations in Asia. Its evergreen mountains, dense forests, stately palms, swift flowing rivers, extensive backwaters and blue lagoons makes the state look like a fairyland.

This very unique window into Kerala allows you to explore its rich culture, cycle and hike through the foothills of the Western Ghat, kayak down the Periyar River, explore the flora and fauna of two wildlife reserves, and cruise the backwaters on traditional houseboats. An adventure for the entire family!
