One of the best way to witness sunrise from a peak (@ south india)
Best time to visit dec-feb
It depends on luck whether you can watch clear or sometimes blocked by mist/fog.
Must to watch atleast once in a lifetime ☝️

An exciting Jeep Ride to see the amazing sunrise. The pristine tea plantations will wipe out the tiredness of the journey... Kids and elderly people should not visit this place since that can be tough for their health. Drivers are skilled. It's cold at the top of the mountain in the months of January and February...carry winter Clothes. A lifetime experience.

Heavenly place, heavenly view, heavenly experience. That's the way it should be described. Only thing is the visitors who make it dirty plastic as well as other wastes. The place is nature's gift a very well place to relax away from the city

We found an excellent jeep safari guide, John, who took us to multiple stops on top of Kolukkumalai. Apparently, going here for Sun rise is a special experience. John knew a lot about the local area since he was born and brought up in the region. You can contact him on. He can also arrange for people to stay on top of the hill. This place and not top station is the highest accessible point in the region

A must visit place to watch sunrise. Surely it will give you a Wow factor if the climate is good. Advance booking is recommended and rate of jeep to the point is less in weekdays.

The sunrise at this viewnpoint.. pls don't miss the experience. it is pure bliss to watch the rising sun. It is an offroad drive through the tea estate to the view point of about 7-8 km. There are around 150 authorised jeeps to take you to the top.. No private vehicles are allowed. People with back issues may refrain from visiting as the travel to top might be troublesome. This is the world's most elevated tea estate. There is a small tea shop on top of the hill with a rest room.

The ultimate heaven on earth😌😇. Just felt really good there, actually I was lucky that I was there at the right time and I was even lucky to watch the mist and the cloud bed below the kolukkumalai peak. Singappara was mind-blowing and beautiful. Would like to come and visit one more time. For those who are coming, please don’t miss the ‘Boss peak trek’. The view from the boss peak was actually Breathtaking!!! Please don’t throw any type of waste there. Please do visit before sunrise, it is worth every penny!!!

This is my first sunrise experience which was super amazing! You have to woke up at 2am to witness the beauty of sunrise from that point and it’s totally worth it! Jeep safari was quite adventurous and we enjoyed it. This point is the highest tea plantation Level so there are many tea estate all the way to the view point.

Overall worth the whole experience of watching the sunrise.

You can hire any jeep to come pick you up from your hotel at 4:30am. This will ensure you reach just before the sunrise. However, I personally recommend leaving 15 minutes early to ensure you get a good spot on the mountain top to watch the sunrise.

A bed of clouds below you and the sun above you is a sight depending on the days weather and cannot be guaranteed but the view is definitely amazing irrespective.

It will be cold so take a jacket.

The jeeps usually charge about 2500 but it's worth the experience.

There are a few more smaller treks in the mountains which you can ask your jeep driver to guide you and take photos for you. Take in the sights and enjoy.

Make sure you wear sports shoes that fully cover your feet to avoid leeches. Some parts of the mountain may have leeches.
