ECOTONES CAMPS

The most ethnic experiences

SOUTH INDIA - Kerala, Munnar

Ecotones was born out of a passion to bring guests closer to nature. While most hotels and resorts utilize the beauty of nature and the wilderness to sell themselves, there are very few that give back to nature or contribute to conservation in any way. Eco-tourism - responsible travel to natural areas that does not damage the environment, contributes to its conservation, and improves the well-being of local people - is an ethical option and Ecotones attempts to imbibe this culture in its true sense. Guests can indulge in nature-oriented exploratory activities such as bird watching and nature trails or can just sit back and enjoy the scenic view. With activities such as cycling and guided nature walks, we hope to take people one step closer to nature and inculcate an interest for the natural world through observation and learning about its many intricacies.

THE LOCKHART GAP
The gap opens up to a completely contrasting sight of high-elevation, vibrant green tea gardens on the right side of the road. The rocky ledges also contain a small natural cave that are rumoured to be a hideout by highwaymen in days of yore.

RHODO VALLEY AND MEESAPULIMALA
Rhodo Valley and Meesapulimala are destinations for serious trekkers: the climb can be pretty testing. Tourists can gain admittance to the area only after obtaining permits from the Kerala Forest Department.
