How To Reach Photo Point

Munnar, Kerala, India
Photo Point is a small, enchanting spot nestled among dense tea plantations, rolling hills, and a backdrop of tall, verdant trees, often including silver oaks. It is essentially a designated, scenic curve on the road that has become immensely popular due to its perfect, postcard-like views of the pr istine natural environment. The name itself suggests its primary function: a superb location for photography. The dense cover of tea bushes, trimmed to an impeccable uniformity, creates a rich, textured green carpet that contrasts beautifully with the occasional tall, towering trees that break the horizon. The air here is crisp and carries the faint, refreshing aroma of tea leaves. The spot captures the very essence of the Munnar landscape—a blend of organized, cultivated beauty and wild, untamed nature. It's a quick stop, but the memory it etches is long-lasting, embodying the tranquillity and lushness that define the high-range hill station. It serves as a visual gateway, offering one of the first truly magnificent vistas a traveler encounters on the popular sightseeing route toward Mattupetty Dam and Echo Point. The elevated location provides a wide-angle perspective of the surrounding valleys.

How to Reach

By Air (Nearest Airport): The nearest major airport is Cochin International Airport (COK), located approximately 110 KMS away. From the airport, one must hire a pre-paid taxi or a private cab. The drive takes around 3. 5 to 4 hours and offers beautiful views as the road winds up the hill. The route is through towns like Angamaly and Kothamangalam.

By Train (Nearest Railway Station): The two nearest major railway stations are Aluva Railway Station (AWY) (approx. 110 KMS away) and Ernakulam Junction (ERS) (approx. 125 KMS away). From either station, a traveler can hire a taxi or take a state-run or private bus to Munnar town, followed by a short local ride to Photo Point.

By Road (Major Highway and Bus Service): Munnar is well-connected by road, primarily via NH49 (Kochi-Dhanushkodi). Government and private bus services run frequently from major cities in Kerala and Tamil Nadu (like Kochi, Madurai, Coimbatore) to the main Munnar bus stand. From Munnar town, Photo Point is a short drive, easily accessible by auto-rickshaw, local taxi, or a pleasant walk (about 25 minutes).

By Local Transport: From Munnar town, the most convenient local transport options are Taxis (Jeeps) or Auto-rickshaws. Both are readily available near the bus stand. Since Photo Point is on the main tourist route, many organized sightseeing tours or shared taxis already include this spot on their itinerary. Negotiate the fare before starting the journey.
