Witness Nature’s Grandest Show: The Kolukkumalai Sunrise
Tucked away in the Western Ghats near Munnar, Kolukkumalai offers one of the most spectacular sunrise experiences in all of India. At an elevation of 7,900 feet, it’s the highest tea plantation in the world, and the view from its peak is nothing short of magical.
The journey begins in the early hours, as jeeps rumble up rugged mountain roads from Suryanelli. The ride itself is an adventure—bumpy, thrilling, and unforgettable. As you reach the summit, the sky begins to glow. Saffron hues melt into golden light, revealing a panorama of mist-covered hills and emerald valleys. The air is crisp, pure, and invigorating.
It’s not just a sunrise—it’s nature’s fireworks, and every moment feels like a blessing.
