About The Trip
If you are in for exploring “God’s Own Country” by trekking, let us disclose to you Kerala is dotted with many offbeat trekking trails in the Western Ghats. One such is Ranipuram Peak in the Kasaragod district. An easy course suitable for beginners, the Ranipuram trek showcases the beauty of the Western Ghats and makes for a delightful short journey. The hills here are covered with evergreen stunted tropical montane forests and grassland. From the peak’s highest point, you have a panoramic view of the landscapes, green valleys, and glimpses of the Arabian Sea in the far west.
Massive boulders rest on top of the hill. Like a magician’s sword cuts only that the eye can sum, the spurting winds here have cut the boulders that seem supernatural at that height. How these rocks made their way to the top is still a mystery, but the views are genuinely breathtaking.
The views from the top are often compared to Ooty, a prominent hill station in Tamil Nadu. But we strive to differ here; this is an offbeat trek. Unlike Ooty, which is commercialised, this place still enjoys solace. Wild animals, endemic flora and fauna, weather conditions and circumambient smell team up to give us a juvenile experience.
Trip Highlights:
- Go to the offbeat Ranipuram trek in Kerala
- Cross streams and valleys on your way
- Trek to the top of Ranipuram
- Explore the unexplored places
- Stay at a Beautiful Homestay surrounded by nature
- Experience the best of Kerala Food.

We leave behind the city life of Bangalore at night for the quiet life of Ranipurm, which is situated around 300kms away. The trek leaders start with the introductory part and the most awaited part of it all – the icebreaker session, which is essential for thoroughly enjoying the 2-days journey.

Details
After reaching Ranipuram, we will freshen up, have breakfast and go to the trek start point.
The trek is easy. After crossing the dense Shola forest, we reach open grasslands where the sun’s rays welcomely give respite in the monsoons and winters. In summer, you might feel them biting through your skin, but now and then, heavily swollen clouds will cheer you up. You will come across one forest guard hut made of stones in the open grasslands. It is somewhat damaged—maybe because of elephants and nature. There is a pool nearby where elephants come to play.
We will reach the top in about 1 hour. The top of the peak gives views of forests, panoramic landscapes and the Arabian Sea at the far west end.
After a short while, we will start to descend. If it rains, the descent can become challenging as the terrain will become slippery, so wear shoes with a good grip.
We will have a packed lunch en route.

When we say Kasargod exploration, beaches and Bekal fort might come to mind, but little do you know that this district is home to organic farms, beautiful waterfalls, and picturesque hills. We'll let you discover the magic of these places firsthand. Your day begins with a drive to Tabore, where you'll embark on a trek to the serene Tabore Hills. After soaking in the breathtaking views, return to the homestay for a hearty breakfast. Then, it's off to an exhilarating river rafting adventure, depending on ticket availability and safety conditions. Should the rapids be unsuitable, an equally exciting alternate plan will be ready. Following the thrill of rafting, savor a delicious lunch before delving into the mysteries of cave exploration. As the day wraps up, enjoy a satisfying dinner en route before we journey back to Bangalore. Prepare for a day brimming with adventure and hidden gems!
