ELEPHANT RIDES

Let the wild tuskers of Kumily take you on an odyssey through the jungle. This trip, organised by the Forest Department, is equal parts fun and terrifying. The excitement lies in the unique vantage point of perceiving the forest and its rare flora and fauna from the back of the largest land mammal on the planet.

PERIYAR LAKE

At Periyar Lake, see how an aquatic ecosystem thrives in one of India’s best-preserved national parks. Hidden amidst the mountainous area of the Cardamom Hills, this sanctuary was formed by the construction of the dam across the Mullaperiyar River in 1895. When you reach its shores, book a boat cruise to observe the wildlife in the reserve instead of taking a guided walk. The lake harbors many species of fish, reptile, birds, and mammals, while mainly tropical and deciduous trees make up the surrounding park’s surface.
