CHEMBRA PEAK
Our God's own Country'is what we say for Kerala, The most beautiful, exotic and picaresque state of India. Kerala abounds in the most exotic and beautiful Hill stations. Among them the Wayanad hill station is the most scenic and the most adventure filled. The Chembra peak is the highest peak in Wayanad at 2100m. above the sea level.
It's the hills, rocks, valleys which add to the very unique character of Wayanad and thus adds more of thrill to adventure tourism. Trekking to the Chembra peak is a really risky mountaineering endeavor. Trekking to the top of this peak is almost a full day's work. The District Tourism Promotion Council provides guides, sleeping bags, canvass huts and other required trekking implements on hire charges to the tourists. So tourists willing to spend a day or two can very well do so.
The scenic beauty of the lush green Wayanad, visible from the top of the Chembra peak is highly exhilarating. The calm blue eyed water of the lake at the top of the Chembra peak never dries up, not even in the peak summer temperatures. All along the steep and slippery way to the top of the peak the constant whispering of the spring which sprouts from the top of the hill accompanies the trekkers. At times one may even come across a passing wild beast, say for a leopard that may instantly hide behind the bushes. Out in the shivering cold, with camp fire and sleeping bags', camping in the night at the top of the Chembra peak is really fun and also an everlasting experience.
Kerala as an Eco tourist spot has gained much popularity for its backwaters and the hill stations. In the trekking section the Chembra peak has become highly popular for its adventurous track. Chembra peak the highest hill in the Wayanad, is near Meppady town and is 14 Kms. from Kalpetta. Wayanad, wherein lies the Chembra peak has a highly powerful historical background.
