Forest, coffee and spice plantations, mountain trails and wildlife make Wayanad a destination with plenty to do beyond the usual sightseeing route.

Plan Your Trip All Destinations

Why spend time here?

Wayanad sits in the Western Ghats, with forests and plantations spread across its hills and valleys. Coffee, pepper, cardamom and other crops are part of the landscape, while places such as Edakkal bring a much older layer of history.

It is particularly suited to travellers who want time outdoors, whether that means a walk through plantation country, a forest experience, a trek or a closer look at local life.
