Anakulam Munnar

Anakulam is a village locked by forest from all sides. Beauty and serenity meet in this region, nearly 40 km away from Munnar. Elephants move around here in large groups, uninhibited by the presence of human beings, a unique feature of this scenic spot. Anakulam is nourished by the two tributaries of Periyar, namely, Idacholayaar and Nallatanniyaar. Accessibility to Anakulam depends on the availability of jeeps in the area. For the brave, there is the opportunity to come within 50 meters of elephant herds as they go about their business. This herd includes young calves and not just the mighty tuskers. A walk at a leisurely pace and a refreshing bath in the Idacholayaar tributary is sure to make one feel youthful again.
