“Live the Adventure”, is the tag line that we will always endeavor at Adventure Crossroads. It started off with the vision to break away from the routine and do something different. Going ahead, you will be able to not just ride with us to exotic locations across India, but also enjoy other activities like Angling, Treks, Mountaineering(Rock climbing, Rappelling),Nature walks, Archery, Wind surfing, Jet skiing, Para sailing, etc.

Of course, these are just to begin with…and many more would be put into action as time goes.


Due to the Shaadi Season coupled with Santa Celebrations we took a break last month.... :)

We invite you to our 3rd ride to Panchgani.


Why Panchgani? Well, who does not love strawberries? And thus, no better time to visit and enjoy them, right where they grow!

Panchgani, needs no introduction. It is known for its perennial amazing weather and flora.

The weather forecast seems to be sunny during the day and at night expect a cool draft at around 10-12 degrees. :) Don’t worry we have the Bon Fire to warm you up!

Needless to say, we have a surprise for you on this ride too. :)
