📅 October to March is ideal for visiting Mannarkkad when the weather is cool and dry, perfect for trekking through spice plantations and exploring the hills without monsoon disruptions. Avoid May to September when heavy rains make hill activities challenging, though the landscape turns emerald green during this season.
