Early
breakfast and reporting at the boat landing on Lake Periyar to cross
over to the starting point of the trek. After about two hours of hard
walk, you hop on to a country raft (its just bamboo poles bound
together) paddled by tribal boatmen. Absolute silence is the secret and
soon you will be able to witness wild animals strolling down to take a
drink from the lake. If it's your lucky day, sightings could include
Elephants, Bison, Bore, Sambar, Hyena and of course different bird
species. Tigers being very shy of humans are very rare sightings but one
never knows… After about three hours on the raft,
head
back to firm land and walk back to civilization and your Village Resort.
It's been a long day and you deserve to put your legs up and enjoy a
tall cooler.
Lunch would be packed and served in the jungle while a lavish dinner
would be served at the hotel.
Overnight would be at the resort.
