Hotels In Border Hiking

Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary, Kerala, India
Border Hiking is a strenuous yet incredibly rewarding full-day trekking program for adventure enthusiasts seeking a deeper and more challenging exploration of the Periyar Tiger Reserve. This conservation-oriented activity is designed to take visitors through the park's peripheral regions, offering unique perspectives of its diverse ecosystems and providing breathtaking panoramic views. The trek is typically led by a team comprising a trained tribal guide and an armed forest guard, ensuring both safety and expert insights into the forest. The trail winds through varied landscapes, including dense forests, grasslands, and challenging hill ridges. The altitudinal changes provide a wide range of vantage points from which to observe the sprawling plains of Tamil Nadu on one side and the verdant, hilly expanse of the Periyar forests on the other. This activity is not just about physical exertion; it's also a serious opportunity for wildlife observation. Due to the varied habitats covered, participants have a higher chance of spotting a diverse range of animals. Gaur (Indian Bison), with their formidable size, are often sighted in these higher altitudes, as are Sambar deer and occasional elephants. The elusive Sloth Bear can also be encountered. The journey is also a treat for birdwatchers, as numerous species inhabit these varied elevations. The armed guard ensures safety, while the tribal guide shares their deep knowledge of the forest ? identifying animal tracks, calls, and various plant species with medicinal or traditional uses. Border Hiking is a testament to Periyar's commitment to involving local communities in conservation, providing them with sustainable livelihoods while offering an authentic and challenging wilderness experience to visitors. It?s an unforgettable journey that combines adventure, breathtaking scenery, and deep ecological insight.
