Start your first day in Munnar by visiting the tea plantations that give the town its name. Take a tour of the plantations and learn how tea is processed and packaged. Then, head over to Echo Point, surrounded by a lake and green hills. Here, you can shout and hear your echo come back to you in a magical moment. You can also take a boat ride in Kundale Lake and explore the scenic beauty of the place.
Begin your day at the Eravikulam National Park, home to many endangered species such as the Nilgiri Tahr. The park also offers some of the most stunning views of Munnar's natural beauty. After spending a few hours here, head over to Top Station. The drive up to Top Station will take your breath away, with scenic views of the Western Ghats. Top Station also offers panoramic views of the Munnar valley and the nearby towns, and is the perfect place to end your trip to Munnar.
If you have more time, you can explore other nearby attractions like the Mattupetty Dam and Anamudi Peak. On the other hand, if you have less time, you can skip either Echo Point or Kundale Lake and Top Station. It's recommended that you start your day early to avoid crowds at the Eravikulam National Park and Top Station, and also plan your trip during the months of August to May for the best weather conditions. Don't forget to pack light and comfortable clothing, hiking shoes, and a camera to capture the stunning views of Munnar!
