Wyanad- A wild Kerala Holiday

Kerala is often called as God’s Own Country and proof of this lies at Wyanad. Wyanad is a collage of mist covered mountains, lush green paddy fields, exotic flora & fauna, spice plantations and colorful festivals. Banasurasagar Dam, the largest earthen dam of India, is a perfect location for a picnic to remember. Waterfall freaks can head for Kanthapara and Soochipara falls, while the scholarly types will find the prehistoric carvings at Edakkal caves intriguing. My favorite activity in Wyanad was to walk barefoot across the Kabini River at Kuruva Islands amidst 1000 acres of evergreen forests!

Dubare Elephant Camp

Dubare is an Elephant training camp on the banks of the River Cauvery. Elephants for the spectacular Mysore Dussera festival are trained here. The most fun activities here are giving a bath to some of the trained elephants and then feeding them!

I cannot think of many better ideas to spend the weekend than coming to Dubare Elephant Camp and interacting with Elephants.
