Wildlife + Rainforest Escape
A rainforest wildlife escape into the heart of the Western Ghats
Muthanga Wildlife Sanctuary forms the Wayanad segment of the Nilgiri Biosphere — thick rainforest, bamboo groves and moist deciduous slopes buffering Bandipur and Mudumalai across the Kerala–Karnataka–Tamil Nadu border.
This 3-day trip blends morning jeep safaris in the sanctuary with waterfall visits, tribal culture stops and a soulful hillside stay — perfect for travellers looking for wildlife plus a slower Wayanad experience.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you might want to know before booking this package.
When is the best time to visit Muthanga?
September to March is best, when the monsoon has cleared and the rainforest is at its lushest. The sanctuary can close briefly during peak monsoon for safety.
Is a Muthanga jeep safari safe for children?
Yes — the safari is a shared jeep with a forest guide on a fixed route. It's completely family-friendly.
How is Muthanga different from Bandipur / Nagarahole?
Muthanga is a rainforest-style sanctuary with dense bamboo, tall trees and heavier greenery — feels more like a jungle walk. Bandipur / Nagarahole are drier deciduous forests better for open sightings.
Are the caves and waterfalls physically demanding?
Edakkal Caves involve a moderate uphill hike (~30 minutes). Soochipara Falls involves steps down to the viewpoint. Both are manageable for anyone with average fitness.
How do I confirm the booking?
