Travel guide
From tea to cardamom — one of Kerala's prettiest hill drives.
The Munnar to Thekkady route is about 90–100 km and takes 3–3.5 hours through the Cardamom Hills via Poopara, Rajakkad and Nedumkandam to Kumily. Expect winding roads, tea and cardamom plantations and viewpoints. Leave after breakfast to reach Thekkady for lunch and an afternoon spice plantation tour.
