Mudumalai
/ Masinagudi
: (Tamilnadu)- 250 kms to the South of Bangalore.
It is extremely varied with hills, valleys,
ravines, watercourses and swamps full of
wildlife. It is famous for its population of
elephant herds. It is visited for natural
surroundings.
Masinagudi
is a nature centric destination and a popular
ex-Bangalore getaway for corporates and
individuals.
Tamilnadu
isn't too active in terms of promotion of
wildlife and activities and therefore the
destination is more nature centric with a
wildlife backdrop with Bandipur
(25-30 kms) in the nearby Karnataka offering
serious safaris.
- Mysore - Mudumalai highway passes through the
reserve forest and one can spot Deers and even
Elephant herds right on the highway. This is
popularly termed locally as "Main road
safari".
