Marayoor sandal forest
Marayoor, located forty km from Munnar, is a rain shadow village lying in the eastern side of the Western Ghats and is bordered by the neighbouring state Tamil Nadu. Marayoor is the only place in Kerala with a natural growth of sandalwood trees. Marayoor as a pristine, heavenly and unexplored tourist spot is comparable to Munnar which is one of the most sought after hill stations in India in every respect. The place is especially an excellent trekking spot for adventure seekers. The road from Rajamala to Marayoor is flanked by lush green tea estates.Then you come across the sandalwood forest. First, the trees appear one by one, and soon these turn into a sea. The air is cool and one comes under the rain shadow area.
Echo point Munnar
Among the many attractions of Munnar is the Echo point. It is situated around 15kms from Munnar, and draws huge crowd, thanks to the natural phenomenon of echo. Located on the way to the Top station, the highest point in Munnar, echo point provides the perfect point to see the glory of the valley that lies beneath it. Eco point is a lake side location about half an hour drive from Munnar. It is on Top Station road, about 6 kms past Mattuppetty. The artificial lake is the same reservoir that is at Mattuppetty and the view is similar as well.
