With its idyllic location in the
Nilgiri Biosphere, Wayanad district in Kerala is a land of mysterious
mountain caves, thundering waterfalls, large tracts of forest land,
ancient ruins, tree houses, jungle trails, exotic wild life and a number
of aboriginal tribes. The district's hilly terrain with numerous
outback trails and trekking routes makes it an ideal destination for
adventure seekers. With 26% forest cover, much of the district still
remains unexplored, and constitutes the last surviving tracts of a
unique ecosystem.
Wayanad has two major wildlife reserves - Muthanga and Tholpetty - that are home to an incredible range of flora and fauna, including several endangered species. The district also has its share of historical and religious monuments. But it's for its natural beauty that Wayanad is best known. Check the links below for a glimpse of some of the places worth a visit. We have indicated the approximate distance from the Resort to each of these places. To visit them all would take more than a week. For your convenience we have classified them into three categories. Contact Reception to chart out an itinerary that best serves your interests.
