Kerala is practically made for road trips, with its lush hills, serene backwaters, and coastal charm. Here are five unforgettable drives that blend nature, culture, and a bit of adventure: Thekkady to Munnar A dreamy ride through tea plantations, spice-scented forests, and misty mountain curves. Don’t miss a stop at Periyar National Park before winding your way up to Munnar’s rolling hills. Alappuzha to Changanassery This short but stunning route cuts through the heart of Kerala’s backwaters and paddy fields. You’ll pass through Kuttanad, where farming happens *below* sea level—how cool is that? Kozhikode to Wayanad A favorite for nature lovers and thrill-seekers alike. The Thamarassery Ghat Pass offers hairpin bends, waterfalls, and sweeping views of the Western Ghats. Kollam to Alappuzha (Coastal Route) This one’s a showstopper. Cruise past the roaring Athirappilly and Vazhachal waterfalls, through dense rainforest, and into the tea-covered hills of Valparai. Chalakudy to Valparai via Athirappilly A breezy drive with the Arabian Sea on one side and tranquil backwaters on the other. Expect fishing villages, coconut groves, and some of the best seafood you’ll ever taste.
