Banasura Hill Trek<\/span><\/a><\/p>\nKnow All About Banasura Hill Trek<\/b><\/p>\n
The trail to the top of Banasura Hill is clearly defined for the most part. The majority of the trail winds through very dense Shola trees. From its base, Banasura, a massive cone-shaped hill, may be seen in all its glory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe <\/span>Banasura Falls<\/b> diverge into a babbling stream that meanders over stones and plants. About <\/span>2.5 kilometres from the Banasura dam in Wayanad is where the ascent begins.<\/b> The <\/span>Meenmutty waterfalls<\/b> are about a half-walk hour from the Forest Service office and are worth the effort (beginning stage of the Banasura Hill trek).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nMeenmutty Falls<\/b> is Wayanad’s most impressive waterfall, with numerous spectacular cascades. The 1,000-foot cascade is famous for its three-tiered playing field.<\/span><\/p>\nIt’s an arduous climb to the top of the hill. The hiking path stealthily winds through the valleys, where swaying crops provide a lush backdrop. The trek offers a progressively more <\/span>impressive view of the Karamanathodu stream of the Kabini River<\/b>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe three-hour hike to the summit is stimulating and taxing due to the path’s undulations and steepness. The first 45 minutes of this route are the most challenging because of how steep it is from the get-go.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nAbout halfway there, you’ll see three or four breathtaking mountain streams where you can refill your water bottles. After the initial hard elevation, the remaining 1.5 hours will gradually incline.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nSeveral cliffsides provide a panoramic view of the surrounding mountains. Carry on ambling down the trail; you’ll pass a few knolls en route to the summit. The top is the best place to get breathtaking views of the surrounding area. Continue down the same path you came down with. It’ll take you three to four hours to make your way down the nine-kilometre stretch of winding terrain, including mountain streams, knee-high prairie, and 60-70 degree inclines.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/span>River Rafting<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\nHop on the rafts in Pazhassi Park, Chalippuzha Jungle River Rafting and River Anoth in Vythiri for White Water Rafting.

It is located some 3 km from Vythiri and is one of Wayanad’s most visited tourist places.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/span>Soochipara Waterfalls<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\nAlso known as Needle Rock Fall, the Soochipara or Sentinel Rock Waterfalls is located near Meppadi.
