Start your adventure with a trek through the lush Western Ghats. The hill range offers numerous trekking trails ranging from easy to strenuous. The moderate trail to the top of Chembra Peak offers spectacular views of the surrounding hills and grasslands. Don't forget to pack water, snacks, and sunscreen for this 5-hour trek.
Spend the day exploring the majestic Athirapally Falls, located on the Chalakudy River. The waterfall drops from a height of 80 feet into a shallow pool below, creating a mesmerizing sight. You can also take a dip in the cool waters or opt for a thrilling boat ride through the cascading waterfalls.
End your adventure trip with a kayaking excursion through the serene backwaters of Kochi. Paddle past lush coconut groves, vibrant paddy fields, and quaint villages. You might even spot some migratory birds or a jumping fish. End your kayaking session with a traditional Keralan lunch served on a banana leaf.
If you have more time, you can visit the famous Fort Kochi, an hour's drive from Kochi. Fort Kochi is home to the iconic Chinese Fishing Nets, St. Francis Church, and the Dutch Palace. If you have less time, you can skip the kayaking session and visit the nearby Thattekad Bird Sanctuary instead. Avoid travelling during monsoons as it can disrupt your plans.
