Hill Stations in Kerala

Whenever one remembers Kerala, an incessant image of backwaters, beautiful beaches, lush green vegetation and untamed wildlife comes to mind. But, Kerala has much more than this, dressed on its exotic platter. Located on the remotest corners on the cliffs and the ravines of the Western Ghats, Kerala, a heaven on earth, is well renowned for its hill stations. The hill stations of Kerala are lush greens abodes of rich flora and fauna.

The Western Ghats are the main reason for the equitable and sub tropical climatic conditions of Kerala. Its location is also another reason why this state receives heavy rainfall. If you are seeking a retreat from the heat and thinking of enjoying the cozy comfort of Nature or wish to trek on the woody mountain trails or if you are simply answering the "call of the mountains", the hill stations of Kerala is the answer to all these questions. Here, you come across various mountain streams along with undulating flora and enticing fauna. If there is a place you can go to forget your hassles and a place where you can stay away from the routine it will surely be a hill station in Kerala.

Idukki, Munnar, Thekkady and Pullumedu are among the major hill stations of Kerala. Vandanmedu, Chellarkovil, Vandiperiyar and Pattumala are among the other hill stations of Kerala. Pullumedu is a lush green hill station that offers the sights of nearby shrines and pilgrimages. Next is Vandanmedu, which is the major sight for the largest auction of cardamom in India. Chellarkovil is one of the mystic hill stations in Kerala, as it is home to a number of waterfalls. Vandiperiyar too is a popular spot for visitors. It is nicely snuggled between a few major pilgrimage sites of Kerala and temples. Pattumala, last but not the least, is a nature photographer's dream, as it is full of exotic flora and fauna. All these hill stations make Kerala the ‘God’s Own Country!’
