Visit the farmlands of a village hidden in the valley behind the
mountains of Periyar Tiger Reserve in a bullock cart.
The village is rich in bird diversity (New explorations for a
serious bird watcher, also wonderful beginning for a novice)
With vineyards, diverse agricultural crops of mangoes, tamarind,
onions, sunflower, jasmine and a score of other vegetables, the
village will take your breath away when the guides start to
interpret how farming has woven delicately with the culture and the
life of the natives.
To feel the slow pace of the village life, to be part of the
innocence, to take away you between cock and stick fights, to quench
the thirst with the nectar from tender coconuts.
Conducted by a group of people who were encaged in sandalwood
smuggling, later surrendered before the Forest Department .The
profit from this programme goes to rehabilitate this group of
people.
