Experience Wayanad's breathtaking natural beauty with a visit to the majestic Meenmutty Falls, a three-tiered waterfall that cascades down from 300 metres. Next, head to the Tholpetty Wildlife Sanctuary, part of the Western Ghats, that features dense forests, grasslands, and wildlife, including elephants, tigers, and leopards. Return to Kalpetta in the evening to relax and rejuvenate.
Begin the day with Banasura Sagar Dam, the largest earth dam in India and a must-visit spot for adventure enthusiasts. You can indulge in activities like trekking, zip-lining and boating while feasting your eyes on the stunning view of mountains and water. After that, visit Chembra Peak - the highest mountain in Wayanad – which offers breathtaking views of the surrounding region. For dinner, head to the popular ClayHut Restaurant for traditional Kerala cuisine.
Explore Wayanad's rich cultural heritage by starting the day with Edakkal Caves, known for their ancient inscriptions and rock art. Afterward, visit the Pazhassi Raja Museum and the art gallery in the nearby Kalpetta to learn about the rich history of Wayanad. Round off the day by visiting the Tusharagiri Waterfalls; serene falls surrounded by lush greenery.
For those with more time, don't miss the chance to visit Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary to encounter more magnificent wildlife. If time is tight, you can skip either Pazhassi Raja Museum or Tusharagiri Waterfalls – both sites exemplify Wayanad's rich heritage but a choice ultimately depends on your preference.
