Curated Elegance Amidst Spice Plantations

Birdwatching Trek To Mount Mircale

Embark on a 4 km trek through coffee and cardamom estates bordering the Periyar Tiger Sanctuary. At dawn, witness a breathtaking sunrise from Mount Miracle, a moment of pure serenity. Along the trail, spot Indian bison, deer, and a rich variety of birds—from white-bellied treepies and rufous woodpeckers to the melodic Malabar whistling thrush. Listen for the distinct ‘steam locomotive’ call of the Great Pied and Malabar Pied Hornbills, a rare and unforgettable sight.

Periyar Lake & Bamboo Rafting Adventure

Experience the tranquility of Periyar Lake with a scenic boat ride, where the gentle ripples and fresh mountain air set the perfect pace for relaxation. Glide past lush forested banks, keeping an eye out for elephants bathing, deer grazing, and—if you're lucky—a tiger quenching its thirst at the water’s edge.

For a more immersive experience, try bamboo rafting, where you’ll float across pristine waters, watching vibrant waterbirds from a low-slung raft. Step ashore for guided treks through the Periyar forest, spotting wild gaur, sambar deer, and herds of elephants from a safe distance. If you're up for a challenge, opt for the full-day bamboo rafting adventure, combining extended trekking and rafting for the ultimate wilderness experience.
