 Tour Details 

We need to drive about 43 kilometers (1.5 hrs) to Anakulam via Lekshmi mountain (road) from Munnar info meeting point. The unspoken feel of beauty and serenity meet together at a forest-locked village called Anakulam. This place of aesthetic value is nearly 40 km away from Munnar, the paradise of God's own country. Wild Elephants dally here in large social groups in human-inhabited areas, which is something unique about this scenic spot. Two tributaries of Periyaar, namely, Idacholayaar and Nallatanniyaar, wet and nourish this land. Accessibility depends on jeep service.

Everyone can enjoy Wild elephant herds within a distance of 50 meters. The herd strength includes young calves and mighty tuskers. A nice walk through the forest and a cool bath in the Idacholayaar freshen one's mind. Anakulam is an amphitheater surrounded by reserve forests. It has high uniqueness due to geographical, climatic, and cultural richness. The Muthuvans and Hill Pulayas are sui generis by their own. The panoramic view of step cultivation lands of Anakulam surrounded by huge mountains is mesmerizing. Anakulam Safari explores all these enchanting uniqueness within a few hours.There is only 80 -90% chance to see the wild elephants, and not recommended on heavy rainy time.
