Wayanad is definitely among the most relaxing hill destinations of Kerala for high rope courses, as the weather remains cool and the atmosphere is quite naturally adventurous. The high rope facility in the Vythiri area is kind of a circuit where each participant has to move from one elevated challenge to another while being constantly attached to the safety line. The concept is to provide a controlled challenging experience where the risk is minimal and the main aspects are balance, coordination, and confidence. Thus, it can be considered as an ideal "height + adventure" safe activity for families, students, and first, time, experiencers without any need for technical skills.
