Most visitors find September to May the most comfortable. Here is what each season is like.
Munnar is a hill station, so it is cooler than the plains all year. For most travellers, September to May is the comfortable window, with the coolest weather and often the clearest views from December to February. June to August is the monsoon, with heavy rain and mist.
The rains ease and the hills stay lush. Skies clear up and view points open up, and waterfalls are still running well.
These are the coldest months, with chilly mornings and evenings, and the period most people picture when they imagine Munnar. It is also busy, especially around Christmas and New Year, so book your stay early.
Days are warmer, but Munnar remains a pleasant escape from the heat below. It is a popular choice for families during school holidays.
Heavy rain, drifting mist and fewer visitors. The hills are at their greenest and waterfalls are full, but views can disappear behind cloud and some roads and tracks may be affected. Carry rain gear. We check the weather before every jeep trip and may adjust the route for safety.
