Munnar is a cozy retreat 1,800 m above the sea level. Rich tropical forests contain species like the Nilgiri Langur, Sambar, Gaur and Lion Tailed Macaques. Rajamalai, part of the Eravikulam National park has a very strong population of the Ibex.
Orchids are another attraction.
While you are in Munnar, take time off to visit a tea processing unit. It's quite an experience to sea the green leaves being slowly converted to black aromatic dust. For Golf lovers, Munnar has got an excellent Golf Course right at the centre of the town.
