Planning

Travel plan

Weather

Even during summer hill stations are much cooler. Ensure to carry some warm clothes to avoid the chill. Pack extra woollens and blankets if travelling with children. If you plan for adventurous activities like trekking, mountain climbing, etc. ensure to carry comfortable shoes that prevent sore feet and blisters. Taking an umbrella or raincoat is a wise choice in the monsoon season. Carry extra plastic bags to cover your bags, electronic items, cash and other things. 

First-aid box

While travelling always carry a first aid box with some common medicines for cold, fever, headache, skin allergy, etc. It might be useful in an emergency at the hill station.

Food

Pack eatables like chocolates, biscuits, candies, wafers, and juices. This will be of use in case of an emergency like you get stuck at an isolated place or if your vehicle breaks down. 

Driving skills

Wayanad has a hilly terrain and it needs some expertise to drive through the sharp turns and rocky edges. Ensure to brush up on your driving skills or hire an experienced driver. 

Carry adequate cash

If you are travelling to a hill station and plan to do some local shopping for spices and artefacts it’s always better to carry adequate cash.
