Treehouse Stay, Munnar

Treehouse Stay, Munnar

One of the most thrilling and exciting experiences in Munnar in the Western Ghats is staying in a treehouse. There are plenty of hotels and resorts in munnar that have quaint treehouse stay options dotted in and around Munnar located amidst scenic plantations and forest valleys.

Providing not only the exposure to the wilderness but also luxury in the wild, these resorts have constructed tree houses in unique spots that give you beautiful views of the undulating tea gardens as well as dense forests with their wild inhabitants. The treehouses of Munnar are called Erumadam in the local dialect of Malayalam and they give a glimpse of the way the tribals of the area lived.

Each cabin among the trees has a well-appointed bedroom with all amenities including Wi-Fi and TV, bathroom with 24 hours hot and cold water supply and a lookout balcony. The treehouses are constructed out of bamboo, coir, and hay and have bamboo steps leading up to the living level. The locations of these treehouses on various properties are usually at the conjunction of a group of tall, strong trees with wide-spreading branches. So safety is not an issue. There are also treehouses set on stilt construction.

What is thrilling about a treehouse stay at Munnar? Well, you have to experience it to know quite how wonderful it is. For one thing, the night sounds of the forest echo around you making you feel a part of the wild, wild wilderness. For another, it is also an amazing experience when you switch off the lights and merge with the darkness. Herds of deer and if you are lucky, elephants come to graze below the treehouses. One can actually be among the wild creatures and watch them while in the relative safety of the treehouse in the wild.

The resorts provide sumptuous multi-cuisine meals during your stay, maybe a bonfire in the chilly evenings if there is no rain. Specialist guides well versed in the wildlife of the region can be arranged to take you on a guided safari in eravikulam national park in munnar and if you are lucky you can catch a glimpse of leopards, tigers, bears, and elephants. Early mornings are fantastic. The early morning mist covers the surroundings and you will wake up to the chirping of hundreds of birds, a couple of squirrels playing and jumping from branch to branch.

The lush foliage surrounding the treehouses takes you into the world of Tarzan. Some resorts have treehouses overlooking the water holes where wild animals come to quench their thirst as do seasonal birds.
