Trekking
Though Goan inland does not have high mountains, small or medium sizes
hills not exceeding a couple of thousand feet in height offer some
chances to go for a short trekking. Some old temples are also located
on hilltop and trekking the way up amidst a deep jungle is an enjoyable
experience.
Golf
The Leela Beach and Ramada Renaissance, both in south Goa, have small
nine hole courses.
Bullfights
It doesnt pay to abe a matador in goa. Here, bullfights are between two
bulls, no matador needed. The fighting season starts around early
October and lasts till May. The most popular locations are in one of
the villages around Panjim like Taleigao (the most famous fights are
held here), Santa Cruz or Caranzalem. They are also held near and
around Margao in south Goa at the villages of Velsao and Benaulim. The
fights usually begin around 4 pm, after siesta to the sound of taped
Konkani music.
