Wayanad - The Green Paradise of Kerala

I am sad to say that i still didn't visit Wayanad.. which people say "The green paradise of Kerala".
Wayanad is most tourister's dream and I wonder why I haven't been there yet. So this can be my next destination? Ofcourse.... but still I've to wait for some more dayssss... you know why ?

I am not that much adventurous, but yes I am... I like trekking at night to spot some wild animals and staying around the fire in the middle of the forest.. can you imagine spending an entire night in the jungle? Lets have some chicken legs tooo to add some taste :P and what else? To be frank I'm looking for a team for that.. So are you interested?

Now about Wayanad... Its not easy to describe about Wayanad with few words.. you must seee it.. I will share you more about this place once i went there... Now here is a small idea -

Wayanad is one of the districts in Kerala that have been able to retain its pristine nature. This green paradise is nestled among the mountains of western ghat and is located at a distance of 76 km from the nearest sea-shore of Kozhikode. The leading tourist centres of South India like Ooty, Mysore, Bangalore, Coorg and Kannur are around this region.

This district of Kerala offers excellent wildlife viewing opportunities, an insight into tribal culture evocative of earlier centuries, trekking and other adventure activities, and a variety of remote monuments. The hills, rocks and valleys which give shape to the very unique terrain of Wayanad provide for exceptional adventure experiences. For wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers, Wayanad's wildlife sanctuaries are must visit destinations. Established in the year 1973, the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary is about 344 sq km in extent. The Sanctuary exists as two bits. Tholpetty, near Mananthavady is contiguous with Nagarhole of Karnataka. The Muthanga-Bathery-Kurichiat ranges are nearer to Sulthan bathery, bordering Mudumalai of Tamil Nadu and Bandipur of Karnataka. Rich in biodiversity, the sanctuary is an integral part of the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve, which has been established with the specific objective of conserving the biological and cultural heritage of the region.
