Lakshmi Hills Trek Route

Difficulty: Moderate
Not the highest neither the most famous trekking route in Munnar, Lakshmi Hills trail is definitely among the most enriching ones with spectacular landscape and a moderately steep climb. Starting from a point around 3 km from Munnar towards Kochi on NH 85, the 14 kilometres climb takes you through tea plantations, revenue lands and then open green grasslands and some undulating rocky slopes. You can get a chance to witness the native fauna and even some rare endemic species of birds and butterflies. At some point in the walk, you will get a glimpse of Anaimudi – the highest peak of South India as well as the Western Ghats.
