Tips

If you have extra time, add a day to explore the remote Tholpetty Wildlife Sanctuary or relax longer at the Meenmutty Falls. For a shorter trip, skip the Chembra Peak trek and replace the wildlife safari with a quick visit to Soochipara Falls, which still offers beautiful scenery with less travel time.
