    Bhanasura hill Second most highest peak in wayanad district. (Above 6000 ft from sea level ) The trekking starts from meen mutty waterfall . Tickets cost 2860 rs for 5 persons which includes guide fee also if any extra person with us we must pay 413 rs for each . After finishing all procedures from ticket counter we can start the trekking with our guide . ( Try to reach the point as early as possible , normally trekking starts @9 am & need to carry enough water and food ) Kannan is our guide such a nice fellow ❤️ We started @ 10 the trail through shola forest were little difficult due to leaches so taking salt is better to avoid leach bites. Apply little salt powder on leaches when it bites. After the forest the greenish meadows will begin, and we can see the mesmerizing views of bhanasura hills . A hut 🛖 made for resting. From there the trail become straight . At the end the trail split in to two one trail to bhanasura reservoir view and the other to the banasura peak. First go to dam view point and then to the peak . We summited at the top most point of the peak . Guide told us that we were the first team reached that point because it was that much difficult. If he lie or not our team is very happy to be there. Thank to Ajin bro , Abhijit bro ,Kannan bro & Immanual Ettan

    We enjoyed trekking have to take permission at forest department which is on the left hand side about 1km before reaching the parking area on the peak charges ₹300/- per person and guide fee of ₹400 Leeches are a bit of nuisance, if lucky can see elephants on the trek

    Banasura Peak Trekking. Wayanad is a paradise for trekkers, however one thing that makes Banasura Trek unique is the view of Banasura Dam. The ariel view of dam and its catchment area is stunning. Kattukunnu is a small peak enroute. Trekkers can enjoy a closer view of the Dam and surroundings here. Once you climb up, this can be seen from a higher altitude. Other than initial short stretch, the entire trail goes through grasslands. Beware of leaches, especially in monsoon. Banasura is one of the highest peaks in wayanad at an altitude of 2000M+. Carry enough water and snacks. Don't miss the Meenmutty falls, it's right behind the ticket counter. Varambatta is the base, Padinjarathara is the nearby town where you can find accommodation, ATMs etc.

    Banasura Hill is one of the tallest mountains in the Western Ghats of the Wayanad district, Kerala, India. The hill is named after Banasura, a mythical character of Indian legends. It is one of the highest peak exceeding 2,000m between Nilgiris and Himalayas after Chembra Peak

    Recommend this place for adventure lovers.. Total about 12kms walk. Forest dept will arrange a guide for you at a nominal price. Very nice experience. Recommend to take some food/water as there are no shops nearby. Best time to visit would me before 8 am

    It is a really beautiful place. We will feel trecking is till "thavala paara" (frog shaped rock), but the trekking starts after that. The mountain itself is beautiful, the view from the mountain is amazing. Trecking finishes at pond encircled by a thick forest. It is a must go place for one who loves trekking. The guide we had was really friendly.

    The place is beautiful and has floating solar panels on them , this place has zip lining if u r interested or speedboating , kayaking etc . It has got a beautiful park for u people to enjoy . Swings on long tress and long walks in the dam will be very nice . Even transportation to the top is provided for 10₹ if u can't climb the steps. But don't miss the speed boats.
