Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary
- Elephant rides and elephant bathing may also be offered within Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary, but think twice before you sign up. These practices are strongly encouraged by experts, who explain that they stress the animals. The best way to interact with elephants is to admire them from afar.
- Many people visit the sanctuary on a day trip; however, there are overnight options for anyone seeking a longer nature immersion. Accommodation within the reserve itself tends to be limited to lodges and campgrounds, while visitors can find deluxe hotels located just outside. The sanctuary offers multi-day tour packages.
- Bear in mind that this area is protected, so keep it undisturbed. Never pick any plants or flowers and don’t even think about littering. If you bring snacks and water with you, consider taking along a separate bag to collect your trash in.
- Wear sturdy shoes appropriate for the outdoor setting, especially if you plan on walking or trekking. The area is home to snakes and other reptiles, including cobras and pythons. Walking with a guide will keep you safe, but you still want to be protected against the elements.
