Elephant ride is one of the adventure options in Kerala to explore the wildlife in the dense forest of Western Ghats. Munnar, Thekkady, and Muthanga in Wayanad are the popular spots that offer elephant safari. The time for the ride may vary from 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the area to cover and the attractions to explore.
In a single ride, an elephant can carry 3 persons at a time. Elephant safari offers amazing opportunity to enjoy stunning view of the plantations in Munnar, wildlife of Thekkady as well as Wayanad and explore hills, rocky land, and valleys. If you are adventurous, go deeper into the forest and you can witness numerous animals like bison, deer, and chirping birds etc.
Elephant ride also gives you an opportunity to interact with the elephants very closely. You will have chances to see the elephants taking bath and if allowed you can feed them also.
