About The Tour
The Meesapulimala trek has two major trails. The shorter trail is around 11 km from the KFDC base camp through the Rhodo valley, and the other is a 15 km long trail from Kurangini. Trekking can be organized through the Kerala Forest Development Corporation office in Munnar. The booking for the trek is limited. The most popular trail is the 11 km route from the KFDC base camp, which is about 24 km from Munnar. A 4 km bumpy drive in jeeps is available for trekkers who prefer a shorter trek. On this route, one can explore the Pandava cave, where the Pandavas from the epic Mahabharata are believed to have stayed during their exile. Overnight camping is available in tents. All trekking and camping facilities are provided by KFDC, including expert guides. The trail from Rhodo valley involves rough terrain, streams, and a climb to Meesapulimala, offering breathtaking views of the Kurinji Waterfalls and surrounding nature. Around 40 to 60 people are allowed daily, with an entry pass issued at the KFDC office.
