Go Wayanad

The border of Kerala's greener region is formed by the lush paradise of Wayanad, which is located within the Western Ghats mountains. This place is beautiful and clean, charming and rich in culture and history. This lush hill station lies 76 kilometres from Kozhikode's seashores and is home to a variety of crops, forests, and animals. Contiguous with Mudumalai in Tamil Nadu and Bandhipur in Karnataka, the Wayanad hills provide a wide land mass for the wild animals to roam in their natural habitat. Geographically, the Wayanad district is located on the southernmost tip of the Deccan plateau, and its most striking feature is the spectacular Western Ghats, which have lofty mountains, rough terrain, and deep valleys that are dotted with lush forest and jungle. The area is also in a favourable location because it is surrounded by major South Indian tourist destinations including Ooty, Mysore, Bangalore, Coorg, and Kannur. Wayanad is made up of 3 taluks, Mananthavady, Sulthan Bathery, and Vythiri, and has a population density of 369 people/km2 and a total area of 2132 km2 (as per the 2001 census). The district's administrative centre is situated in the municipality of Kalpetta, which had 29,602 residents as of the 2001 Census. Wayanad experiences pleasant weather all year long. In this district, there is an average annual rainfall of 2322 mm. The areas of Wayanad with the highest rainfall include Lakkidi, Vythiri, and Meppadi. In these high-rainfall regions, the annual rainfall ranges from 3,000 to 4,000 millimetres. During the southwest monsoon, high-velocity winds are frequent, and in March and April, dry winds prevail. Regions at high altitudes are quite chilly. The maximum and minimum temperatures at Ambalavayal over the past five years were 29°C and 18°C, respectively. During the south-west monsoon season, the relative humidity in this area can potentially reach 95 percent. The Western Ghats' gorgeous mountainous plateau and lofty location make Wayanad special. Wayanad's magnificent natural beauty is expressed in its huge stretches of mist-covered mountains, green valley meadows, white water springs, blue water lakes, and wild forests. Despite its charming appearance, this sleepy small hill station's vast tribal population of over fifty tribes and their intriguing way of life may be what visitors find most endearing. Travelers can enjoy the thrills of jungle life while lodging in tree top homes and mud huts.
