Far from the
madding crowds...
Gavi, a picturesque land is
one of the off-the-track destinations ideal for a wilderness retreat
replete with trekking, birding, canoeing and facilities for
boarding.
There are hills and valleys, tropical forests, sprawling
grasslands, sholas, cascading waterfalls and cardamom plantations.
Endangered species including the elephant, Nilgiri tahr, lion-tailed
macaque are often sighted at the outskirts of Gavi.
The programme

programmes run by the Kerala Forest Development
 Corporation and Eco
Development Committees, one where three families could stay in the ecolodge at Gavi and the other where 15 persons can go for a day’s
visit of the area.
Hosted and accompanied by trained local people, the visitors can
go for trekking and bird watching in the many trails around, paddle
in still waters to cool off or perhaps settle down for watching
sunset in this oasis of peace and tranquility. Native vegetarian
food and snacks will be provided to the visitors.
