We are planning to go to Mundanthurai this week end. A brief intro is required. I had been upto the manimuthar water falls but not after that. It is situated near southern tip of western ghats. Lots & lots of greenery – Tea plantation, where ever u go u can spot only one color that is green.
Height is 6000ft
Temperature Very chill
Road condition Poor
Date of journey : 15/01/2011 – 16/01/2011
Places to be covered : Manimutaru waterfalls – Manjolai – Kakachi – Nalu mukku – Kuthirai vetti – Upper Kothaiyar – Kuttiyar
Transportation : Chevrolet Tavera
Number of persons : 6
Permission: Prior permission from forest department is compulsory if you are traveling by private vehicles. (Forest office is located at Ambasamudram – 04634254574)
Transport available: Government busses are available from Tirunelveli, Ambasamudram & Papanasam. Frequency of them is very less. So its better to arrange a private vehicle.
