💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in homestays and farm resorts instead of hotels - they cost 40-50% less, include meals, and offer authentic experiences with local families.
📅 October to February is ideal, with cool weather and clear skies perfect for trekking and sightseeing. Avoid May-June due to intense heat and September-October monsoons that can make roads slippery.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require a visa as Cumbum is located within India in Tamil Nadu state. Simply carry a valid ID like Aadhaar or PAN card for domestic travel.
