An escape from the heat to the princess of the hills, Kodaikanal! It’s set in an area of granite cliffs, forested valleys, lakes, waterfalls and grassy hills. At 2,000 meters above sea level, the town centers around man-made, star-shaped Kodaikanal Lake, bordered by evergreen forest. We cover two offbeat experience in this package as below.. 

1. Spice Valley Camp accommodation is located 20 km from the hill station of Kodaikanal in Tamil Nadu, with around a 300 meters uphill trek from parking. Spice Valley adjoins Kodaikanal Wildlife sanctuary, far from built-up habitats with only the echoes of c. 5000 yr-old dolmen circle belonging to a lost civilization whose remains survive amidst the beauty of Mother Nature.Spice Valley Camp hosting eco-campers in South India is situated at about 5000 ft above sea level in the Western Ghats mountain range which are recognised by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, one of the world’s eight ‘hottest hotspots’ of biological diversity, home to more than three hundred globally threatened species and subtropical ‘shola’ forests: often seen by guests around the Camp which covers about 200 acres, are elephants, Indian gaur, deer, colourful birds, and other wildlife.

2. Kookal Village: Relish the mountains on the way to Kookkal village, located 35 km from Kodaikanal. Kookal village is an offbeat and best place to relax and enjoy nature. 'Kookkal lake', 'Kokkal falls' and 'Pura kal'(dove stone) are few mesmerising places. Stay at the Eco farm, with a view of Kookkal lake.
