Ponmudi Tours

Ravishingly romantic valleys veiled in fabulous floral carpets stepped in lush green � that's Ponmundi for you. Tucked away at a height of 1,000 meters above the sea level, Ponmundi is straight out of some nursery-book picture with its long winding hill tracks passing through miles of spice and tea plantations, murmuring mountain streams and thatched cottages in subdued gray and brick-red. A mere one hour drive-away from Thiruvananthapuram, Ponmudi welcomes you as you enter through the path bordered with thick green foliage interspersed with neatly tended tea bushes.

Places To Stay

The complex of the Government Guest House with 24 rooms and 10 stone cottages rested on the hillside is a decent accommodation option at Ponmudi. It rather boasts the concept of home-stay with its hospitable locals offering homely and decent lodging facilities.
