Cycle Through South India

Zip through tea plantations, caves and beaches and experience South India on two wheels. Located on the Malabar Coast of south-west India and wedged between Lakshadweep Sea and the Western Ghats, Kerala is a great place to start this journey. From its famous backwaters to its tropically lush rainforests and high altitude mountain forests, Kerala makes for an invigorating cycling expedition.
