Start your first day with a visit to the most famous peak in Wayanad, Chembra Peak. You will need to trek for around 3 hours to reach the top of the peak, but it is definitely worth it for the breathtaking view of the heart-shaped lake. In the morning, the trek is easier and less crowded. Afternoon can be spent relaxing at the beautiful Soochipara Falls. Evening is perfect for a visit to the famous Lakkidi Viewpoint for a stunning view of the valley before returning to the hotel.
Start your day with a trip to Kuruva Island, a serene and peaceful place with a lot of greeneries and streams. Kuruva island is open only from September to May. Take a walk through the island's bamboo groves and relax at the clear-water streams. In the afternoon, visit the Edakkal Caves, an ancient edifice with stone carvings. It takes around 1-2 hours to explore the caves. Evening can be spent at the Pookode Lake, a picturesque location surrounded by green hills and boat rides are available.
Take a calm and peaceful trip to the famous Thirunelli temple, surrounded by lush green hills in the backdrop of the Brahmagiri peak. The temple is said to be 3000 years old and has a unique architecture. Afternoon can be spent at the Banasura Sagar Dam, the largest earth dam in India with a great view of the mountains. Enjoy boating in the dam and indulge in some adventure activities like zip lining. In the evening, head back to Kalpetta for some local shopping and dining.
If you're interested in local culture, visit the Uravu Bamboo Weaving Center, where you can watch artisans create beautiful bamboo crafts. For a day trip, visit the Bekal Fort, which is around 3 hours from Wayanad and has a beautiful sea view. To maximize your fun, plan your trip during the monsoon season when Wayanad is at its best.
