FULL DAY MOUNTAIN HIKING THROUGH TEA PLANTATION
The full day trek is a guided tour towards the Lekshmi hills and Pothamedu mountains in Munnar. This hike covers approximately 14 to 18 km (6 hrs). The terrain in Lekshmi hills is lush and fertile, initially used for growing coffee, cardamom, and cinchona, now replaced by tea plantations.
The trek starts at 1420 meters above MSL, reaching a height of about 2000 meters. The route showcases tea and cardamom plantations, shola forests, and rocky mountains. There is a high chance to spot endemic birds. After a brief refreshment, packed lunch is provided.
