Munnar
Rolling hills, wearing a blanket of lush green tea leaves, virgin forests, spectacular waterfalls, viewpoints, cozy cafes, and a huge range of rare flora and fauna—Munnar is everything a backpacker can dream of, but that wasn't always the case. Till the 19th century, Munnar remained a vast, unexplored wilderness in the heart of the Western Ghats, occupied by the indigenous tribes that lived in the woods. With the development of Kannan Devan Hills as a tea plantation, Munnar also started to grow, and soon the otherworldly charm and rich colonial history started to attract tourists to this little hill station. Today, Munnar is one of the most visited hill stations in all of India and is known as a paradise for couples, families, and solo backpackers alike.
Munnar gets its name from the conflux of three rivers, namely the Nallathanni, Mudhirappuzha, and Kandala; Munnar literally translates to three rivers in Malayalam. The pleasant, cool climate and the stunning sunsets and sunrises on the misty mountains make Munnar a place you can visit throughout the year. Despite being incredibly popular among local tourists and international visitors, Munnar is never crowded, so it is the perfect place to be if you want to spend some quality time and have a low-key, sweet vacation with our Munnar Kerala tour packages in 2024. There is no hustle here, only tea, mist, chocolates, stunning landscapes, and love.
The best time to visit Munnar
The winter months from November to February are generally considered the peak season in Munnar due to the cold climate and stunning views during this time. Winter is also an ideal time to participate in adventurous activities such as hiking, trekking, camping, rappelling, etc., without getting tired and drenched in sweat. Although a little warmer than winter, the hill station is fairly cool during the summer months too compared to the rest of mainland India, and if you are visiting with family, it is the perfect summer vacation spot where you can spend quality time with your loved ones and enjoy group activities together.
Even though the monsoon is not a recommended season to go on adventures in Munnar, it is the best season to witness the nature of Munnar in its full glory. The vivid shades of green and the sprouting of new life all around you are a mesmerizing scene you can witness during the monsoon months in Munnar. The season also offers cheap accommodations, so if you are a shutterbug who loves nature, pack your bags for Munnar this monsoon.
