The Experience
Where the Western Ghats meet the clouds
Amboli sits at the edge of the Western Ghats — a UNESCO biodiversity hotspot wrapped in mist, waterfalls, and one of India's last surviving rainforests. Over three days you'll climb hairpin ghat roads under cloud cover, coast past valley viewpoints and lakeside trails, and step into the forest after dark on a guided night walk. Whether you ride every kilometre or lean on the support vehicle and an e-bike, this journey is built to be shared by cyclists and non-cyclists alike.
Why This Ride
More than a cycling trip — a rainforest immersion
Waterfalls, cloud-covered ghats, and a night in the wild — all fully supported, for cyclists and non-cyclists alike.
Ride Through India's Hidden Rainforest
A UNESCO biodiversity hotspot of real mountain roads, waterfalls, and cloud cover — cycling through scenery most travellers never see.
Suitable for Cyclists & Non-Cyclists
Flexible pacing, an optional e-bike upgrade, and a support vehicle throughout mean everyone rides at their own comfort — no one is left behind.
Guided Night Wildlife Exploration
After dark, head into the rainforest with a local naturalist to spot the endemic frogs, snakes, and insects that make Amboli famous.
Valley Viewpoints & Lakeside Trails
Misty valley panoramas, rolling countryside, and a lakeside finish — every day ends with a view worth stopping for.
Fully Supported Ride
Experienced ride leaders, a dedicated support vehicle, and all logistics handled so you can focus on the ride and the wild.
