We just had a peak view as the trek to heart shaped lake was stopped in recent days :( Lush green with coconut, palm tress with coffee and tea plantations are blissful.

Thirunelli Temple

Reviewed By thatonewhoblogs - Bengaluru, India

To begin with this is a really really ancient temple located in the brahmagiri range bordering Karnataka. The exact date of foundation is unknown but what's known is that this place is known as the Kashi of the south. People come here to wash their sins away ,and be close to the Divine. Temple timings are morning till 12pm and evening 5.30-8pm. The temple has old architecture and the vibes feel so good here. I personally felt so uplifted out here ,surely something divine and positive . PS: people other then Hindu faith are not allowed inside the temple However they are free to enjoy the premises . There is lots of shopping around the temple footsteps I picked up some tea, ayurvedic herbs, honey ,soaps and what not for good price and premium quality (first shop down the steps) The ride to the temple is amazing and from a forest zones , chances of spotting the wild is very very high . Also recommended to travel in Your own transportation, as public transport in this side of the state is dull My humble request is to visit this place and feel good ;)

Neelimala View Point

Reviewed By taz70526 - Bengaluru, India

We have to this place in July 2017 from Bangalore. Accessibility : You can reach the foot of the point by car. From there we took jeep which costs around Rs. 500. What you see : Breathtaking views. You can see tea plantations of Tamil Nadu, Nescafe Factory, Meen Mutthy falls Sochipara falls, and there meeting at the Chaliyar river, the view of Chembra peak, dense forest valley, clouds. Food : There is no food along the way. But there are hotels in Vaduvanchal. Verdict : A must visit for nature lovers. there is a bit of walking along the path surrounded by small bushes. Tip: Be very careful as the land is slippery. there are many insects around. Stay away from those beautiful catterpillars they may sting you so bad that tumhe nani yaad aa jayegi (get into serious trouble).

Soochippara Falls (Sentinel Rock Waterfall)

Reviewed By malvikat2018 - Chandigarh, India

These waterfalls are a must visit if you are traveling to Wayanad. Start early if you want to visit these waterfalls since they are at quite a distance (roughly about 45 kms from where we were staying. We were staying at sultan Bathery). It closes at 5 pm. Also, it's a very long and a tedious walk to the waterfall which is nestled amidst the thick forest. For those of you suffering from any back or knee pain, I'd suggest to avoid this place. Especially the old people who find it difficult to walk. It involves a lot of walking and it's not an easy walk especially when you are coming back from the waterfall. It's quite steep and the strong sun drains the energy out of you. It's exhausting. But once you get there, you can relax, take photographs and chill in the water. For adventure seekers, you can also get drenched in the waterfall. Carry extra clothes in that case.

Edakkal Caves

Reviewed By 250kashyaps - Hyderabad, India

A great hike with a steep climb from the parking to the ticket counter. Past the ticket counter there are steps which lead up to prehistoric caves with inscriptions. The caves is around 1000 meters above sea level, and the view is excellent. Be ready to get a great cardio workout and would not be advisable for small kids or people with asthma. There is a separate climb up by modern steps ... making it easier. Definitely a must if in Wayanad.
