THINGS TO DO IN IDUKKI

Thrill of being in the lap of time at disposal is the biggest respite once in places like these. Attempting to touch the mists and clouds, caressing the dew on the tea plantations, feeling strayed droplets flying in all directions while standing next to different waterfalls, making acquaintance with the other side of wilderness in protected areas this district flaunts, and many such urges blend with desires unconsciously. However, Idukki tour cannot be felt complete without trying some of the adventure sports that are popular in this location. The best one is trekking to actually feel the presence of Mother Nature touching all the sense deeply. Boating, bamboo rafting, mountaineering etc can also be taken up with prior preparation. Then, there are always the option of taking plantation tour and knowing what actually makes for a cup of coffee or tea or different spices that make Indian food come alive and enticing.
