Start your first day at Neelimala Viewpoint, located within the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary. Enjoy a peaceful and calming ambiance while surrounded by lush greenery and a fantastic view of the surrounding hills. Reach the viewpoint through a 1 km trek from the base of the hill, which takes about 30 minutes to reach. You can enjoy delicious local cuisine at the base of the hill and visit the animal sanctuary or the Chembra peak if time permits.
Head towards the serene Pookot lake early morning. Enjoy a brisk walk around the lake or hire a pedal boat to experience the peace that the calm waters have to offer. The viewpoint around the lake would provide you with a lovely view of the surrounded hills. You can also visit the nearby Pazhassi Raja Tomb and Museum and the Soochipara Waterfalls, which is situated 10 km from the lake.
To add or subtract more to your itinerary, you may visit other nearby attractions such as Edakkal Caves, Chembara Peak, and Banasura Sagar Dam. To have more peace and relaxation, you can add a visit to Brahma Kund, an ancient temple located in the midst of a dense forest, and Sultan Bathery, a serene valley.
