About The Trip
Closest to the equator in India, Tamil Nadu state is a burning ball in summer. But the state also houses some pockets of respite like Kodaikanal. Simply relaxing and peacefully de-stressing, this hill station is an adjective of purity. Seated at chilling 7200 feet, the place boasts misty woodlands, pine forests, rainbow-coloured waterfalls, a Kodai Lake, Dolphin Nose Point, Echo Rock, and Vattakanal Falls.
Called by various names like 'Princess of the Hills' and 'The Gift of the Forest', Kodaikanal has been a landing location to fight tropical diseases and high temperatures.
Espied closely, if Kodaikanal is the hymn, Perumal Peak trek is music. According to local folklore, the peak was once a volcano that stopped erupting 1,000 years ago. It is a moderate 7 km trek (one way) in the Western Ghats, offering spectacular views of the Nilgiris and perched at 2,440 m.
Let's become a spectator of the silenced beauty and surrender to the meaningful depths of offbeat, pristine and less-disturbed places of Kodaikanal. If you are thinking of zeroing in on a place for New Year 2023, count in for Kodaikanal Trekking and Camping experience that comes loaded with Perumal Peak trek and many other sightseeing locations. Meanwhile, Plan the Unplanned team will look out for you, guide you, and care for you just like a family member. We have organised everything for you, your ticket has to be booked.
