Introduction
Nestled at an altitude of 6000 ft, Munnar used to be a popular summer destination among the British settlers in Kerala. Situated in the confluence of Mudrapuzha, Nallanthanni and Kundala rivers, Munnar is home to some of the highest tea plantations in the world. Shimmering lakes and moist misty hills are all you have to yourself at Munnar.
The enigma of Munnar hills increase manifold when the Neelakurunji plant flowers all over its slopes only to come back 12 years later; the Neelakurunji flowers every 12 years. Favorite among hikers and paragliders for its slopes and and walks, Munnar is a fascinating haven of Nature's bounty. Replete with gurgling rivulets and sprawling tea plantations Munnar had gained popularity as hill station way back in the British colonial era and is now the most sought after hill station in Kerala. The conical red tile roofed cottages at Blackberry Hills Resort are the perfect place to unwind in the privacy of the green Munnar hills while the mischievous mists keep moving he Sahya Ranges in and out of your sight.
