If Coimbatore is near to reach, then the route from Coimbatore as below, Coimbatore - Pollachi - Udumalpet - Munnar. From Coimbatore (Ukkadam Bus Stand) you can get bus to Udumalpet, frequent buses to Udumalpet. From Udumalpet to Munnar, buses at Regular Intervals only. Bus Timings according to my knowledge from Udumalpet Bus Stand is, 01:30 a.m., 02:30 a.m., 05:30 a.m., 06:30 a.m., 07:30 a.m., 08:30 a.m., 10:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m., 01:30 p.m., 02:30 p.m., 03:30 p.m., 04:30 p.m., 06:00 p.m., 07:30 p.m., 09:00 p.m., 10:00 p.m., and last bus at 11:30 p.m. Don't forget this, be there at least half an hour before the bus timings to get seated in bus and also to avoid waiting for bus. Some buses not run at proper time because of some reasons in hill station driving. From Coimbatore to Udumalpet Maximum two hours travels. From Udumalpet to Munnar, Maximum 4 hours travel. Coimbatore to Udumalpet Bus Fare Maximum is Rs 41. Udumalpet to Munnar Maximum Bus Fare is Rs 70. From Coimbatore direct bus to Munnar is at 8:00 a.m. and 02:30 p.m., but best thing is to avoid direct bus, because it may not come at proper time or sometime bus will be cancelled.

Holiday at Munnar

Best way to get there from B'lore is Hosur - Krishnagiri - Salem - Erode - Kangeyam - Dharapuram - Udumalpet. The last stretch of 6 Km from U'pet is very steep and rough, avoid night drive.

Be with your loved ones and not be disturbed

The best way to reach Munnar is to get to Cochin and then take the bus or hire a vehicle to reach Munnar in 3-4 hours. For local travel in Munnar request your hotel to organize a vehicle. There are star category hotels and resorts catering to the needs of tourists. Warm fleece jacket or woolen jumpers are necessary. Take an umbrella or raincoats because heavy clouds might appear quite suddenly over the mountains. After 5pm thick fog starts to envelope the hills sometimes giving zero visibility. Plastics are banned in Munnar panchayat. Avoid the monsoon season while visiting Munnar.

Nearest Airport as well as Rail head is Kochi about 130 km away. Buses are available from Kochi, but hiring a cab helps in coming to close contact with nature, there are a number of unknown sightseeing points on the way to Munnar, none of them will be missed ! So what are you waiting for ? Pack your baggage and you are out for an encounter with pristine nature, you will never forget !!!
