Kolukumalai |

The Highest Organic Tea Plantation in the World & Home to the Best Sunrise in India
Kolukkumalai is a scenic hilltop village located at an altitude of 7,900 feet (2,408 meters) above sea level, near Munnar on the border of Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Famous for its breathtaking landscapes and cool mountain air, Kolukkumalai is home to the highest organic tea plantation in the world.
One of the main highlights of Kolukkumalai is its sunrise viewpoint, widely regarded as the best sunrise in India. Watching the sun rise above a sea of clouds, with golden light spreading across the majestic Western Ghats, is an unforgettable experience for every visitor.
Reaching Kolukkumalai requires an adventurous off-road jeep ride, which winds through rugged mountain paths, tea gardens, and mist-covered hills. The journey is thrilling and rewarding, offering panoramic views at every turn.
At the top, visitors can explore the historic tea factory, where tea is still produced using traditional methods from the British era. A guided visit offers insight into the tea-making process, followed by a refreshing cup of freshly brewed organic tea.
Kolukkumalai is ideal for nature lovers, trekkers, photographers, and anyone seeking peace away from the crowd. Its unique blend of natural beauty, adventure, and heritage makes it a must-visit destination in South India.
