There are many places in Wayanad that can provide you with a break from the maddening crowds and make you feel a oneness with the infiniteness of nature – its woods and animals. A ride in Wayanad will always help you encounter at least a wild elephant or deer, if not a bison or a tiger !!
The Neighborhood
Wynad District is a bio-diverse region spread across 2,132 square km on the lofty Western Ghats, Wynad is one of the few districts in Kerala that has been able to retain its pristine nature. Hidden away in the hills of this land are some of the oldest tribes, as yet untouched by civilization. And the very first prehistoric engravings in Kerala discovered in the foothills of Edakkal and around Ambukuthimala bear testimony to a pre-historic culture dating back to the Mesolithic Age. Strikingly scenic, it is known for its sub-tropical savannahs, picturesque hill stations, sprawling spice plantations, luxuriant forests and rich cultural traditions. A holistic confluence of wilderness, history and culture, Wayanad is located on the southern tip of the magnificent Deccan plateau.
There are two cottages which can house 2 guests each. You can also avail the facility of adding an extra bed on the floor.
