Brahmagiri Peak Trek
Brahmagiri Peak rises to 1,608 metres inside the Brahmagiri Wildlife Sanctuary near Thirunelli, on Wayanad's border with Karnataka. The trail climbs through dense forest and Kerala's rare shola-grassland ecosystem to wide ridgeline views across the Western Ghats. It is one of Wayanad's most rewarding summit treks.
Highlights
- Dense forest trails rich in birds and native plants
- Shola forest and open grasslands on the upper slopes
- Panoramic summit views over the Wayanad hills
- Our 2D/1N trip adds Thirunelli Temple, Pookode Lake and Banasura Sagar Dam, with a campfire and trek orientation
