Workout? Travel? Get Both On Adventure Adda's Kabini Backwaters Cycling Tour

The information in this post might be outdated

What Is It?

Adventure Adda, a travel and adventure collective, is organising a one-day cycling trip to Kabini backwaters, near Mysore. An ideal combination of exercise and travel, the trip starts in HD Kote {the taluk headquarters in Mysore} and goes through the Kabini dam and on towards the backwaters. It starts with an overnight bus journey to Mysore with pick-up points across Bangalore, so no excuses for missing it folks!

Who Is It For?

Everyone who set fitness-based resolutions for 2017, gear up! It’s a good opportunity for beginners and intermediate level cyclists to kickstart your workout this January. If you’re also up for some offbeat exploration of Kabini, then this is your chance.

Why Should I Go For It?

We all make New Year’s promises to ourselves to get fitter, but let’s admit it, exercising can get pretty boring. So this time, we’re not passing up an opportunity to travel and get a workout from it, and you shouldn’t either. The tour includes bus transportation from Bangalore to Kabini and back, breakfast and lunch in Kabini as well as cycle transportation in a support vehicle. With Kabini’s gorgeous landscape, elephant sightings {let's hope you are that lucky}, and wildlife sanctuaries, this is one of the coolest workouts you can ask for. Sure, you’ll be exhausted by the end of it, but with all the sounds of birds and gushing waters, you’ll hardly notice!
