Tour details

• We need to drive about 43 kilometers 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.

What Makes This Tour Special

As daylight wanes, set off on an evocative evening jeep safari from Munnar into the wild-edged realm of Anakulam. This half-evening experience blends forest trails, valley views, waterfalls, and the unique chance to witness wild elephants in their natural habitat—when the hills quiet down and nature stirs under dusky skies.

• Prime Timing for Elephant Encounters
  Elephants often descend from the forest toward watering spots in the later hours. This tour lets you observe herds—including calves and tuskers—from a safe vantage (within ~50 meters) as they gather in Anakulam’s mineral springs.

• Scenic Drive Through Hills & Tea Terraces
  The route to Anakulam takes you across 43 km via Lekshmi Mountain Road, climbing through tea gardens, green slopes, and forest edges—each turn revealing panoramic vistas and dramatic hill slopes.

• Waterfalls & Viewpoints at Dusk
  Pause at the Viripara viewpoint to take in sweeping valley views under fading light. Visit Viripara Waterfall to feel the spray, hear flowing water against the evening hush.

• Forest Walk & Natural Bath
  Explore forest paths along the tributaries Idacholayaar and Nallathanniyaar, both of which feed the Anakulam region. On suitable trails, take a dip in the fresh streams for a cooling, nature-immersed experience.

• Cultural & Geographical Richness
  Anakulam is an amphitheater surrounded by reserve forests, with step-cultivated lands, local villages, and indigenous communities (like the Muthuvans and Hill Pulayas) adding human texture to the wild setting.

• Compact Yet Rewarding
  In just a few hours at dusk, this safari delivers wildlife, hills, waterfalls, culture—all in one package. It’s ideal for travelers wanting maximum impact in limited time.
