Off-road Training School
“Vattavada” Home of The School Of Dirt.
Our aim is to make sure that whatever your current level of riding is, you get your kicks learning and leave as a vastly more confident rider than when you come to us. Our trails are all wild and shaped by the forces of nature with a tiny helping hand from an excavator. We know and believe that the natural trail is a far better teacher than any artificially created obstacle course.
Our trails are constantly being shaped by nature so no matter what, there’s always something new to learn when you ride on our beautiful corner of this earth. We keep our batches small (a maximum of ten people to a batch) because that’s the only way everyone gets the attention they deserve (and paid for).
We only insist that you bring an ADV or a Scrambler to learn with us because regular road bikes with their lower ground clearance will get their guts ripped out by our terrain. Oh, and if you don’t have an ADV or a Scrambler, you now have the option of renting a bike from us. Click here for details.
Accommodation & Food
We love the outdoors and we assume you do to. We assume you’ve made the long trek to us to partake in the quality social distancing we offer. Our accommodation offers free mountain air-conditioning and jaw dropping views. The Only Place Log Cabin log is a large spacious and comfortable Mountain Log Cabin at 6800 ft above sea level. They have 3 rooms and each room has 5 individual beds with large shower and western toilet.
The food on offer during the weekend is basic (the nearest place that’ll give you access to caviar is two hundred kilometers away) but we promise you it is healthy and nutritious and will include organically grown fruits sourced locally. The Vattavada region is known for its organic fruits and vegetables.
