It's early but do it! - Vinu was great! He took us on a special path to see additional view points. One of my friend got hurt and he quickly utilize some local herbs to substitute a bandaid. Would highly recommend as the views were beautiful!

Great experience, would recommend! - Really enjoyed this hike . Our guide, Vinu picked us up whist it was dark and stopped for us to get a much needed coffee before we set off . The first part of the hike we did with moonlight, listening out for elephants!! The sun rise spot was beautiful The views were amazing of the valley, mountains and tea plantation Vinu was even willing to take us further along the ridge if we had wanted. Unfortunately, we didn’t have food provisions, otherwise we definitely would have. Our return route was through the tea plantation, again with stunning views and information provided from our guide .

Sunrise on top of the world - A fantastic sunrise hike! Getting up at 5 to meet our guide Vinoo in the dark and head up into the hills was worth every moment! We reached the top in time to watch the dawn over the hills and tea plantations, it was spectacular. Vinoo was a brilliant guide and so well informed about the plantations and the industry. A real highlight of our visit to beautiful Kerala. Thank you 🙏🏼
