class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Eravikulam National Park covers an area of about <strong>97 square kilometers<\/strong>, located approximately <strong>13 km from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/india\/munnar-tours\/\">Munnar<\/a> town<\/strong>. The park sits in the <strong>Kannan Devan Hills<\/strong>, at altitudes ranging from 1,200 meters to over <strong>2,695 meters<\/strong>, where <strong>Anamudi Peak<\/strong> \u2014 the highest point in South India \u2014 proudly stands.<\/p>\n<p>It was originally established as a game reserve in 1975 and was declared a <strong>national park in 1978<\/strong> to protect the <strong>Nilgiri Tahr (Nilgiritragus hylocrius)<\/strong>, a species of mountain goat endemic to the Western Ghats. Today, it\u2019s one of Kerala\u2019s most visited natural attractions and part of the UNESCO-listed Western Ghats World Heritage Site.<\/p>\n<p>The park\u2019s terrain is characterized by rolling grasslands at higher altitudes and <strong>shola forests<\/strong> (dense patches of tropical montane forests) that grow in valleys and hollows. This combination supports an extraordinary range of flora and fauna found nowhere else in India.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"location-and-geography\"><\/span>Location and Geography<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>State:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/india\/kerala-tours\/\">Kerala<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>District:<\/strong> Idukki<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nearest Town:<\/strong> Munnar (13 km)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Altitude Range:<\/strong> 1,200 m to 2,695 m<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coordinates:<\/strong> 10\u00b009\u2032N 77\u00b006\u2032E<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The park forms part of the <strong>Anamalai sub-cluster<\/strong> of the Western Ghats, bordered by Tamil Nadu on the east. It experiences cool mountain weather most of the year, with mist and rain giving it a surreal, cloud-covered landscape.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Anamudi Peak<\/strong>, located within the park, stands as a prominent symbol of South India\u2019s natural pride. However, direct trekking to the peak is now restricted to protect the environment, though visitors can enjoy panoramic views from the <strong>Rajamalai tourist area<\/strong>, a designated section open to the public.<\/p>\n<p><strong> History and Conservation Significance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Eravikulam\u2019s conservation story is one of India\u2019s earliest success models. In the early 20th century, the area was part of tea plantations managed by the <strong>Kannan Devan Hills Produce Company<\/strong> under British control. Hunting of Nilgiri Tahrs was common until it was banned in the 1950s.<\/p>\n<p>In 1975, recognizing the ecological importance of this landscape, the <strong>Kerala Department of Forests<\/strong> declared it a wildlife sanctuary. Later, in <strong>1978<\/strong>, it gained <strong>National Park<\/strong> status to strengthen protection for the Nilgiri Tahr population and its unique montane ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the park is managed by the <strong>Kerala Forest Department<\/strong> under strict eco-tourism guidelines. It remains one of the best examples of responsible tourism in India, balancing conservation with controlled public access.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"flora-%e2%80%93-the-green-soul-of-the-park\"><\/span>Flora \u2013 The Green Soul of the Park<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The vegetation in Eravikulam changes dramatically with altitude and slope, creating three distinct ecological zones:<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"a-grasslands\"><\/span>a) Grasslands<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>At higher elevations, you\u2019ll find vast rolling <strong>grasslands<\/strong>, covered with short, hardy grasses that can survive strong winds and low temperatures.
