Start with an adventure-packed trek to Meesapulimala, via the Rhodo Valley and grasslands, to enjoy a stunning view of the sunrise from the highest peak in Munnar.
Take a jeep safari tour of the Kolukkumalai Tea Estate, the highest tea plantation in the world, nestled at a height of 8000 ft above sea level on the Kerala-Tamil Nadu border. The tea tasting at the end of the tour is simply sublime.
Anamudi, the highest peak in South India, is an ideal spot for trekking and camping. Start early for the trek and return in the late afternoon to a relaxing campfire and a well-earned meal.
Enjoy boating and a shikara ride at the serene Kundala Lake. This activity is perfect for admiring nature after all the thrill-seeking adventures from the previous days. A picnic by the banks is also a great way to spend the afternoon.
Explore the beautiful Eravikulam National Park, home to the endangered Nilgiri Thar. The park offers stunning views of hills covered in carpets of blue Neelakurinji flowers. A trek to the rolling meadows of the Rajamalai hills is an excellent way to end this adventurous trip.
If travelers have more time, they can add a visit to the tea museum, Rose Garden, or Top Station. For those with less time, they can skip the Kundala Lake trip or Eravikulam National Park visit.
