Chinnar Wildlife Sanctuary, Idukki


Chinnar Wildlife Sanctuary, IdukkiLocation : About 60 km from Munnar,Idukki district.

A unique thorny scrub forest with xerophyte species, Chinnar is the habitat for the endangered Giant Grizzled Squirrel of India. The last world count of these squirrels was less than 200. Located in the rain shadow area of the Western Ghats, unlike other sanctuaries in Kerala, Chinnar gets only 48 days of rain every year. Rich in wildlife, the mixed deciduous forests here are ideal for trekking.
