4 Days Ponmudi Hill Station Tour Package 2027 | Misty
Overview
Sixty kilometres from Trivandrum Airport and 22 hairpin bends above the plains, Ponmudi sits at around 1,100 metres on the southern edge of the Western Ghats. The name translates from Malayalam as Golden Peak — Pon for gold, Mudi for peak — and the mist that settles over the hill in the late afternoon earns that name in a specific kind of light. The hill is not a resort destination. There is one government-run facility at the top, a stream that runs through the forest below the summit road, tea gardens from the twelfth hairpin bend upward and butterfly trails through the Peppara Wildlife Sanctuary that the government ecotourism programme maintains. This ponmudi hill station tour package pairs that quietly extraordinary hill with the Poovar estuary at the southern coast.
Bon Voyagers manages the complete ground programme for this ponmudi hill station tour package from Trivandrum Airport arrival and departure. The private AC Innova Crysta covers all road transfers throughout. Three nights deluxe hotel accommodation — one at Ponmudi, one at Poovar Island, one at Trivandrum — daily breakfast and dinner on MAP basis throughout. All sightseeing and programme transfers as per the itinerary are included. The per person cost of this ponmudi hill station tour package is ₹14,300.

Best Time to Visit
October to March is the recommended window for this Ponmudi-Poovar circuit. October and November give the greenest post-monsoon Ponmudi with full streams and active butterfly trails, while December to February is peak season for clarity, cool temperatures and the most dramatic afternoon mist. Monsoon from June to September brings heavy rain that makes trekking trails slippery and can affect the hairpin ghat road.
