Description
Spend a day cycling along the country roads about 35 Km on two wheels. You will get adventurous working experience with a tea plantation in Akuressa. This is a relatively leisurely journey with 2 or 3 small uphill climbs (make no mistake though you should be relatively fit!). After enjoying a brief stop for a refreshing king coconut you will arrive at the local village – a brief 15-minute walk to the river where you can enjoy a dip in freshwater fed from the Hiyare Rainforest. This ride will take about 7 hours to collect new memories.
