We're yet to meet people who don't like cycling. And it's even more fun in the company of your friends and some eucalyptus and peacocks. Pala Pitta Cycling Park is a reserved forest that has been developed into a cycling park by Telangana State Forest Development Corporation, with a gate that is Instagram-worthy for its rustic look and wall art. This park boasts a 3-km cycling track; you can dash through the trees or slow down near the pond, which is a two-way track. Say hello to the peacocks, kingfishers, and egrets that lurk around the pond, but also watch out for those pesky reptiles that pop out of nowhere. With over 7,500 trees in the vicinity, cycling is more of a windy affair than an activity.
After a tiring ride, you can unwind at one of the refreshment stalls inside. But we must warn you, the weekends are chaotic, and the park has over 1,000 visitors. So if you don’t enjoy crowds, avoid weekends. The park hosts some bicycling contests and events. So, whether you’re interested in stepping up your fitness game or meeting new peeps, this one will work wonders for you.
