Rock Climbing

If you are ready to pit yourself against gravity and push your physical and mental limits, Kerala’s hills, mountains, and cliffs with their rigid climbs and steep slopes present immense opportunities for rock climbing. While Eruthavoor in Thiruvananthapuram and the Adventure Zone at Thenmala in Kollam are the most popular there are others like Munnar in Idukki and Kolagappara near Sulthan Bathery in Wayanad that offer an equally thrilling experience.
