Thekkady - A showcase of the Wildlife of Kerala

Thekkady - A showcase of the Wildlife of KeralaThekkady is probably the best place in Kerala to observe wildlife and hence nature.From the mighty Indian elephant to the Great Indian tiger,

this place has it all.Elephants, deers, boars, bisons and lion tailed macaques are a common sight in the reservoir area. With some luck,other

animals like tiger and leopard can be observed.The tourism department offers trekking right into the heart of the forest either on foot or atop

elephants.The resort located in an island in the centre of the lake is the ideal place to observe animals.If you are more adventurous ,you can

take the road from Moozhiyar to Thekkadi via Gavi winding through the thickest forests of Kerala.Elephants are a common sight on this

path.Boating through the lake is a very pleasant experience and you can observe many waterbirds at close range.This place is ideal for wildlife

photography.The best time to visit is between September and March.
