Hill Stations of Kerala
--------------------------
Kerala
has a long chain of lush, mid-clad hill stations that are home to exotic wildlife.
All the hill resorts in Kerela offer the most enchanting experience of nature
in all its virgin beauty.
When the heat is on the plains, and the time to get away from the crowd, came
for a rendezvous with nature.
Inhale the bracing mountain air, relax in peace, stroll down winding paths,
marvel at the beautiful views, enjoy the profusion of flowers in bloom. Kerala's
exotic appeal is centered in the highland area of the Western Ghats. Rising
to an average height of 1520 m , it houses rich flora and fauna.
Echo Point Lock Heart Gap (13 km from Munnar)
This is an ideal place for adventure tourism and trekking. The fresh mountain
air, the mist-clad hills and panoramic view make it worthy of a visit.
Munnar
The nature-lover’s 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.
Wayanad
Luxuriant plantations of coffee, tea, cardamom, pepper and rubber, stretch over
the hills of Wayanad as far as the eye can see. With the fast-flowing rivers
- Panamaram, Mananthavady and Kabini - cutting across the undulating panorama
and lending a picture-postcard look to the whole region - the north eastern
tip of Kerala.
Devikulam
Devikulam is a dainty town, sixteen kilometers southwest of Munnar. It consist
of irresistibly green slopes touching the sky at a thousand metres and its silent
clusters of slender red and blue gum trees. It has a lovely little lake hidden
within the rolling hills.
