10 Nature & Parks in Munnar That You Shouldn't Miss

April 20, 2022 Karren Gelb

Sprawling tea plantations surround the serene hills of Munnar, which attract adventure travelers hungry for paragliding, treks to Anaimudi (South India's highest peak) and hikes originating at the confluence of three mountain streams. The stone Christ Church, built by the British in 1910, is adorned with renowned works of stained glass, and Eravikulam National Park, about 10 miles away, is home to equally colorful wildlife, including the endangered Nilgiri Tahr (ibex), ruddy mongoose and 120 bird species.

Chokramudi Peak

Reviewed By Praveen_NP_04 - Chennai (Madras), India

One of the best treks I've ever had yet. The trail to the top is comparatively easy to the downhill. The best part is the mini puddle of water at the peak. Loved that taste ????. Do start before 5.30 to get an excellent sunrise view. Nevertheless, the view as we go top is breath-taking. We also came across a couple of bison on our way to the base camp. You can reach the base camp with a private vehicle too. Entry is 400 at the base camp. You can get water bottles too, at the base camp. They will provide a local guide too. It takes almost 7-8 hours to complete the trek. Do carry some source of food (My two cents: chocolates, bread and jam, orange and banana for instant energy). Carry atleast 1 litre of water. Please don't litter the place. Happy trekking. No need for an extra permit or guide.

Attukal Waterfalls

Reviewed By DrKlair - Sangrur, India

As i saw this during monsoon season the falls presented a great sight . To view the falls you have to take a really rough private road from Pallivasal which is about 6 km from Munnar on the Cochin road. The locals told that there is very little water in the falls apart from the rainy season.

Nice spot for photography because it is an ideal spot to take photos with tea garden hills in the background. This point on the side of the Munnar to Mattupetty dam Road.
