Visit India this December and cycle for nature!
On 12th March, 1930, 60-year-old Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi led dozens of his followers on a journey from Sabarmati Ashram to Dandi, in a peaceful protest against an archaic British ‘Salt Tax’ law. Gandhi hoped to bring worldwide attention to the growing Indian independence movement, highlighting the injustice of Britain’s colonial salt laws which forbade Indians from producing or selling their own salt.
Join us 1st-8th December 2024 for this iconic experience as we cycle along the famous route of Mahatma Gandhi’s Salt March across Gujarat, India. This immersive journey will take you from Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad where Gandhi resided for 13 years, between 1917-1930 to Dandi.
This is an amazing opportunity to not only test your endurance but also get to experience true, rural India, visiting village schools and authentic Gandhi’s ashrams. You will also get to experience traditional Indian culture, spirituality, and values from the local communities. All whilst helping Go Dharmic spread the message of prema, universal love, ahimsa, and non-violence towards fellow humans and our planet.
This 8-day cycle or car trip is one not to be missed!
