Meghamalai - Eco Tourism / Tea Tourism / Farm tourism journey
Teabungalows
www.teabungalows.com Meghamalai is located in Tamil Nadu about 85 kilometers from Thekkadi in Kerala, 43 kms off Chinnamanoor, on the Thekkadi - Madurai Interstate Highway. Once the exclusive preserve of a group of plantations, Meghamalai today has become the cynosure of every tourist. The largest plantation, the Highwavys Group, is a tea plantation owned previously by Hindustan Lever and today run successfully by the Woodbriar group. Flanked on one side by the Periyar Tiger Reserve and on the other by the proposed Meghamalai Wildlife Sanctuary, the Highwavys group of Estates lie ensconced in a geographic depression shaped like a bowl, bordered by rising mountain ranges on all sides with a 7 kilometer lake winding across itself. Meghamalai is also home to rare species of birds, flora and mammal life. Wild Gaurs and Elephants are commonly sighted across the few plantations but more so within the Highwavys Group of Estates. http://www.teabungalows.com/meghamalai.htm http://www.teabungalows.com/index.htm http://www.teabungalows.com/properties.htm |
