(Kerala)


Tea Country

Roads winding like serpents amid lush greens abloom with wayside flowers, picture-postcard villages, miles and miles of tea plantations. And that is not all! People exchanging a gossip or two over piping hot tea/coffee at the small wayside shops a trip uphill to Munnar will be etched for ever in one?s memory. The misty hills of Munnar tucked in at the confluence of three rivers- Muthirapuzha, Nallathani and Kundala, is amongst the most sought after honeymoon destinations in south India, and a must see for anyone coming to Kerala.

Quick Getaways from
 Munnar
Anaimudi Peak  

Anaimudi is the highest peak in south India. You can trek to the base of the peak from Eravikulam0 National Park. But you need the permission of the District Forest Officer (Tel: 530487).


Rajamalai  

Their claims to fame are the blue Kurinji, or Neelakurinji flowers that paint the hills of Rajamalai blue every 12 years. Plan a trip this year (2006) and you can feast your eyes.


Pothamedu  
(6 km)

About 6 km, away, this spot offers a good view of Munnar and has good trekking and walking trails.


Chinnar Wildlife Sanctuary  
(60 km)

Some 60 km away on the Kerala-Tamil Nadu border is this little-visited sanctuary. Dawn and dusk are the only times you can hope to sight any of the big beasts. Visiting time is between 7 am and 6 pm. Get your entry passes from the Assistant Conservator of Forests at the sanctuary entrance.
