Kolukkumalai Sunrise View Basecamp & Tent Stay - Campground in Chinnakanal, Suryanelli - Idukki, India

We stayed at the basecamp and enjoyed our time so much ! The camp view and grounds are gorgeous. The drive to Kolukkumalai is short. Murali was an amazing host, helping us with everything and feeding us delicious food !! Vishnu was very helpful with all the planning and arranging transportation for us when we needed. He was also responsive to all my questions before coming to India at all times. All in all highly recommended if you would love to spend sometime with nature!!

We were a group of four, put in two tents. Had a pleasant stay, and the off road jeep drive to Kolukkumalai was worth it, though we couldn't catch the sunrise because of the fog. Apparently, March-April is the best season to visit there. Still, the weather was very cool and perfect for a weekend getaway. The staff at the campstay were courteous and pleasant. They answered all our queries politely and offered the best possible service within their limited resources. They served good food (unlimited) for dinner (Chap, chicken, rice, dal, rasam) and breakfast (unlimited - bread, idly, dosa, sambar, chutney, tea) & had black tea throughout the day. Camp stays like these come with limitations, like common bathrooms (clean though).. but it's perfect for a budget friendly stay. The gorgeous view is an added bonus.

Stayed there for a day, good hospitality. We went in weekday, so only we were at campsite, great view. Went for sunrise view to kolukummulai peak, definitely worth it. Should stay here, for peace and calm place to observe nature. Food was very good. Wifi was also there, so no issue in connectivity.

What an amazing place it is .. we were unlucky because of fog however it's good though . Had a wonderful experience. it is small but still it's good tbh. Iam attaching some pics of the place

The worst stay i ever had in my camping life We are bikers group of 25 members went there for a weekend Im the incharge of the group i organised the event I booked this place by searching on google Nd this one got the highest stars in google review (i dosent know how this hell got this much good reviews) so i called nd asked for discount bcoz the members are more But the owner refused and i accepted for what the fare he told nd i paid the advance . We reached there almost late bcoz some problems in road while reaching there , after we reach there the hospitality is very awesome never seen such arrogant behaviour from the staffs over there, i dont bcoz we are Tamil peoples the mallu staffs talks are much arrogant and attitude,except (ONE GUY WHO IS NEWLY JOINED THERE BEHAVED VERY WELL I forgot his name HE IS TALL ND FAIR ) The special person is the owner of the property Mr. Murali he talk much sweeter in phone while booking His attitude change when you check-in He talks only about money never about customer satisfaction Only money minded business Hospitality at its worst

Friendly owner Mr.Murali and caretaker Arjun. Near kolukumalai, Jeep pick up from the camp available on request. Neat and clean. Kids and baby friendly. Basic Kitchen facilities available. Overall excellent stay.

If exhilarating views of distant mountains and an escape into the misty hills is what your heart desires, Kolukkumalai is a perfect weekend getaway. It is situated 7,130 ft above sea level and effortlessly takes a place in your heart with its most picturesque views of Nature. The Kolukkumalai tea estate, which was started in the early 1900s, is located 35 km off Munnar. The tea here is produced through traditional methods in the factory, and is known for its freshness and desirable flavours. The panoramic view from Kolukkumalai is a thing to be experienced especially during sunrise and sunset. Adventure lovers can also try hiking and camping in Kolukkumalai.

Ive visited many places but this one is really good I really liked the service and food is too good I really loved it and the view from the tent stay is awesome
