Chembra peak is the
highest peak in Wayanad. Chembra
is located near the town of Meppady and is 8 km south of Kalpetta. The
peak is about 1200m above sea level.
There is a heart shaped lake on the
way to the top. Water in the lake at
the top of the hill never dries up even in the peak of summer. Trekking is possible here. District
Tourism Promotion Council provides guides and trekking equipments. The monsoon
time is the best time for trekking.
Once reached the top one will get a
bird eye view of Wayanad. The trek up should on the whole take about 4 hours
for medium paced trekkers. It’s an ideal place for camping at night. It’s
required to take permission for trekking.
Chembra peak is neibhourig to Nilgiri
hills and vellarimala. One can also have a good view of other neibhouring
districts and Nilgiri hills. It’s a paradise for nature lovers .
