Kolukkumalai: A Day Trip Itinerary

  1. 7:00AM: Kolukkumalai Tea Estate
    45 minutes (14 miles) from Munnar

    Kolukkumalai Tea Estate is the highest tea plantation in the world, situated at an altitude of 7900 feet. The tea grown here is known for its unique flavor and aroma due to the high altitude. Take a guided tour of the plantation to learn about the tea-making process while enjoying the stunning views of the surrounding hills and valleys.

  2. 10:00AM: Meesapulimala
    2 hours (10 miles) from Kolukkumalai Tea Estate

    Located on the border between Tamil Nadu and Kerala, Meesapulimala is the second-highest peak in the Western Ghats. The trek to the summit is challenging but rewarding, offering breathtaking views of the rolling hills and the clouds below. Make sure to pack a picnic lunch to enjoy at the top.

  3. 2:00PM: Chinnakanal Waterfalls
