Chapter 07: The Spice Hills
Wander the rolling green carpets of Munnar's estate plantations. Learn organic spice cultivation, trek mist-covered ridges of Lockhart Gap, and experience colonial estate bungalow living.
Munnar sits at 6,000ft in the Anaimalai range. It was developed by British planters in the 1870s and now produces 10% of India's tea. The town itself sits at the junction of three rivers — Muthirapuzha, Nallathanni, and Kundaly — which give it an unusually temperate climate year-round.
