Talayar Valley is easily approachable from the town of Munnar. The approach road is good all the way to the Talayar Valley Bungalow operated by the Woodbriar group. It is 18 km from Munnar, on the way to Udumelpet. This entire journey gives you the opportunity to enjoy spectacular view of the mountains, green carpets of winding and wavy tea plantations, brooks and small waterfalls. Woodbriar plantations here share borders with Eravikulam National Park which has been a prominent wildlife reserve to protect the endangered Nilgiri Tahr. As you near Talayar Valley something overwhelming happens all around you. Slowly mountains large and small keep popping-up on both sides. By the time you enter the bungalow compound, you are encircled by mountains. You get to experience a stunning 360 degree panoramic view of the mountain ranges that surround the bungalow. The total area of the plantation is 2500 acres mostly tea and some coffee.
