How to Reach for Chembra Peak Trekking in Wayanad

Tucked right in between the Nilgiri hills of Tamil Nadu and the Vallarimala in Kozhikode, Chembra peak offers some spectacular views. This guide will help you understand how to reach the Chembra Peak of Wayanad, and where to enjoy Chembra peak trekking. The nearest railway station is Kozhikode which is 79 km away. If you are flying in, the nearest airport is the Calicut International Airport which is 92 km away. From Kozhikode, there are several buses by both government and private operators that can take you to Kalpetta which is about 13 km. From here you will need to take another bus to take you to Meppadi which is 7 km from the base. Alternatively you can also hire a taxi to take you directly to the base of the trek which begins at the tea gardens. For those wondering how to reach chembra peak by car, make sure to have a map or your GPS ready, although it is a fairly straight road. If you want to park your vehicle at the base of the trek, you will be charged INR 20. It is a good idea to go to chembra peak by car, since you can reach right at the base of it.

If you reach after 2 pm, you will be denied entry. The total trekking distance will be about 3.5 km one way. It is ideally a one-day trek but with the permission of the forest department you can also go for a two-day trek and explore the fauna of the region.

Since the forest department has an absolutely no littering policy, you are not allowed to carry plastic bottles or food on the trek. If you do you will be charged at INR 100 per bottle. After you come back from your trek the forest officers will take the count of the bottles again and refund your deposit. Before you start the trek you will also need to take a VSS guide to accompany you. Guide charges stand at INR 150.

The first 300 meters is pretty much a straight walk through tea estates and then there is a steep ascent through grasslands, forests, water bodies and serene landscapes which gives you a chance to revel in the natural wealth and biodiversity of the region. Because of the steep climb it is advisable not to go during monsoons although the forest does remain open throughout the year. The slushy trail coupled with the poor visibility can sometimes be a formula for quite a few slips or worse if you are not a seasoned trekker.

It will take you approximately 3-4 hours to reach the top of the peak. Trekking down will take you about half an hour to a maximum of 45 minutes. Camping here is not allowed as there is the danger of lurking wild animals and because of the sensitive ecology. Chembra peak wayanad trekking is a must do when here.

The itenary was set to our comfort. Hotels were amazing. Our cab driver was friendly and also very helpful. Overall an amazing trip. The hotel in munnar(dew drops) was the best. With a scenic view early in the morning.

Chaitanya's 3 days trip to Wayanad

The driver is not updated to the mark. We don't have proper support from driver for sight seeing. He forced us to take zeep trecking and we rejected it. He don't know the proper itenary in munnar sightseeing places. As per our past experience we went to all the places which we have visited in last t

rip. He won't give the priority to the travellers and his intention is to have food at particular times and bcoz of that we were not seen some places and he asked us to have food in the local hotel which doesn't have proper ambience. I won't prefer the driver Thomas for other travellers. We got this driver from Namaskaram travels

Harigayu

Chennai

Harigayu's 3 days trip to Wayanad

Namaskaram travels is not a local Kerala agent in first place. The itinerary is good. But he missed to coordinate in connecting to driver earlier. Also, haven't updated in hotel about checkin early. Also didn't update us on hotel location and told us at the last moment.We only asked the hotel manage

r about it. Also confusion in connecting to drivers. Also haven't sent us the payment link earlier instead urged us to pay on the day of trip. Could have avoided these many confusions. Otherwise trip went well.

Rushabh Sheth

Asansol

Rushabh's 7 days trip to Wayanad

The Cab & Driver behaviour was very good. The Services of Balaji Vacations was also good. The hotels were good but in Coimbatore Hotel Le Grand Breakfast was given in sealed package instead of buffet which results to wastage of food. In Minner the hotel was good but on top of the hill and far away f

rom main market of Munnar. The hotel of Thekkady was best. The hotel of Alleppey was good but old furniture and fittings. Cochin hotel was good just near to Airport. Best memories were Adi Yogi, Munnar, Thekkady National Park and Boat Ride, Alleppey Shikara Ride. The driving skill of Driver in mountain was excellent.
