Munnar hills are situated at an altitude of 5000 to 8000 Ft above sea level. This beautiful hill station was once the summer resort of the erstwhile British Government in South India. Sprawling Tea plantations, picture book towns, winding lanes, and holiday facilities make this a popular resort town.
Munnar also has the highest peak in South India - Anamudi, which towers over 2695 m. Anamudi is an ideal spot for trekking. The high ranges of Munnar were earlier known as Kannan Devan Hills. The main cultivation crops in Munnar are Tea and Coffee.
Among the exotic flora found in the forests and grasslands in Munnar is the Neelakurinji. This  that bathes the hills in the blue every twelve years is in bloom now in 2006.
Mattupetty is situated at a height of 1700 m above sea level. Mattupetty Lake and Dam is a beautiful picnic spot with the panoramic view of the tea plantations and the lake. Boating facilities are available in the reservoir. Mattupetty is also well known for its highly specialized dairy.
