Hill Stations of Kerala
Munnar

The
nature-lovers paradise. Snuggling in the green and serene Kannan Devan
Hills, lies the quite and restful resort of Munnar, at an altitude of 1524 m
and 136 km off Cochin.
Panoramic views of low-flying clouds and mist filled valleys make it a pretty
little heaven with a cool bracing climate. It was opened up out of virgin forests
a century ago by pioneering planters.
Within its remote and elderly churches - gracious, stone-structures with ancient
chandeliers and rosewood pews. A little beyond lies Anaimudi, South India's
highest peak. In the vicinity is the Eravikulam National Park, the home of the
endangered Nilgiri Tahr that roams on a stretch of grassland or is seen climbing
the pinnacles of the undulating hills.
Here we can have a glimpse of a Gaur, Langur, Lion-tailed macaque, and Elephants
roaming in herds.
The Kundale Tea Plantation - An area surrounding a lovely lake that offers some
of the most stunning views of the region. It offers the best opportunity you
are ever likely to have to see the tea plantations, to watch tea being picked,
to learn how tea is processed, to smell the sweet scent of tea wafting through
the air and to buy the tea directly from the gardens.
