Start your honeymoon with a breathtaking experience at Athirapally Waterfalls. It is known to be the largest waterfall in Kerala and is located in the Sholayar range. This place has a lush green backdrop, and you can take a dip in the serene waters. Must-visit places near the falls are Charpa Falls and Vazhachal Falls. All three waterfalls are known as 'Niagara of India.'
Enjoy the scenic drive to the beautiful tea-estate of Valparai. You can take a tour of the tea factory and learn about the production process of tea. Don't forget your camera as the plantation offers an incredible view of lush verdant fields.
Start your day by visiting Aliyar Dam, which is located at the heart of Aliyar village. You cannot miss the picturesque drive to reach the dam. The tranquil surroundings of the reservoir offer a view that is worth capturing. You can indulge in fishing and boating in the reservoir.
Discover the wild side of nature at Monkey falls. The name itself suggests the playful and mischievous monkeys, which you may encounter on your way. The falls are surrounded by the forest, and you can enjoy the fresh aroma of nature. The pool at the bottom of the fall is shallow, and you can take a dip in the cool water under the waterfall.
If you have more time, you can add Anamalai Tiger Reserve, which is famous for a herd of elephants, and it will take an additional 3-4 hours. You can avoid Monkey falls if you have a fear of heights as the drive has some steep and winding roads. Alternatively, you can include Balaji Temple in Valparai as a religious attraction.
