Wayanad Life Sanctuary

Chembra Peak is an ideal place for adventure lovers, offering a moderately challenging trek that’s perfect for nature enthusiasts.
Edakkal Caves
The history behind Edakkal Caves is captivating — the site features 6,000-year-old carvings believed to have been made by the early tribal humans. The caves may appear simple and easy to trek at first glance, but the journey becomes both interesting and challenging as you go. Reaching the caves involves a short yet adventurous climb over massive boulders, adding to the excitement. The combination of historical significance and aesthetic beauty makes Edakkal Caves a must-visit spot when you’re in Wayanad.
Meenmutty and Soochipara waterfalls.
Meenmutty is the gateway to paradise with backwaters, waterfalls, and rock formations covered in the green herbal forests.
Soochipara Waterfalls—where 'Soochi' means 'needle,' in Malayalam is another gem. The journey involves a steep walkway and a slopping path, requiring a long but rewarding trek through nature. At the end, a magical sight awaits, offering relief to both body and soul.
