In the afternoon, head to the Banasura Sagar Dam, which is the largest earthen dam in India and is surrounded by scenic mountains. You can indulge in various activities like speed boating, kayaking, and more here.
If you have more time, you can also indulge in activities like camping, zip-lining, mountain biking, kayaking, and more in Wayanad.
