Munnar's a scruffy town over 1800m up in the Western Ghats, with a Tamil majority, many of whom work on the Tata Tea estates all around. Other than the chance to use my one word of Tamil (nandri, "thankyou"), and some great cheap street food in the evenings, Munnar generally offers two things: fresh cool air and beautiful countryside just a short walk away in any direction. We were all a little under the weather here (though I was healthiest), and so missed the fine opportunity for stout walks in great scenery: but we saw lots on the drive in from Periyar, and out towards Kochi.
