💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in family-run homestays in Kumily instead of resort hotels—you'll save 40-50% on accommodation while enjoying authentic home-cooked Kerala meals and local hospitality.
📅 October to May is ideal, with November to February offering the coolest weather (15-25°C) and best wildlife visibility when animals gather near the lake. Avoid June to September monsoon season when heavy rains make trekking difficult and visibility is poor.
