Meghamalai - High Wavy Mountains

Reviewed By arunachalam_78

I visited megamalai (Highways panchayat) in Jan 01, 2019 and Jan 02, 2019. We start our journey from thekkady to megamalai on our own car. I booked the “Woodbriar manalar Cottage” to stay for two days. This is one of the good places to stay as of now as a family. On google it is better you use “Highways cloud mountain bunglow” or “Highways hospital”. Many people miss their way by using “Megamalai”. You come to chinnamanur and reach here via “Odaipatti”. If you stay in woodbriar tea bunglow and come with your own vehicle, make sure you have SUV or Jeep. If you are in Sedan or another hatchback, then the last 5 k.m and you cannot travel using them. Good news is that they have started the road work work now, so if you visit here after 3 months (minimum) or 6 months (maximum) the road should be ready at this time. What you can see in megamalai? First remember this is not the commercial tourism place, so do not expect like Ooty, kodaikanal etc. But I always prefer non-commercial hill stations. In megamalai, you can walk, trekking etc. Apart from that you can visit the falls, Maharaja Mettu view point, tea factory. You can spend half day in Maharaja Mettu view point , if you visit there do not stop at one place . make sure you see the small Church ( Only Cross ) , one murugan temple and another amman temple . People over there told me that normally people do not come here and they stop at one point. So, keep on walk till the top. You can see the nice view from there, good place to relax. Next important place is the lake. I think if you stay in woodbriar cottage you can visit here, otherwise you need to take the permission to visit here. The falls is very good, guide told me that on summer elephant came to this water fall. This is the very beautiful falls. if you go to megamalai, do not miss to see this water falls. Apart from this you can go to manalaru, dam and relax in so many places. What else we can see here? There are few more places which we are not allowed. Local people told me that there is a place called “vatta parai” and public are not allowed here as animals are coming often here and very difficult to reach here.

Suruli Falls

Reviewed By nithyalakshmisundar - Chennai (Madras), India

Water water everywhere! The falls is a great view, and you might have to walk to get near the water. You have changing rooms on the side. You have separate entry for men and women. Depending on the speed of the water you have people guiding you as to how close you can get to the water! But once you go in there, it’s a great way for relaxing. Spot few friendly monkeys!
