After seeing lot of videos on kolukkumalai, i decided to make one video from our trip to kolukkumalai for new year celebration, the experience was awesome. we started from chennai on 31st dec by 7am and reached suryanelli checkpost by 830pm, it was a complete ride in rain,
The jeep safari from suryanelli checkpost to kolukkumalai in night was thrilling and Bummmmpppyyy 😂 ( usually they prefer us to come before 7pm)
if you plan to stay in kolukkumalai, there are few tent stay option, those will be in Suryanelli estate but only 1 is inside kolukkumalai ( we booked through contact as i have already been there, msg me if you need the number).. but all stay will be said as kolukkumalai tent stay. The dinner was ready when we reached and it was hot and tasty.

Next day morning we have to trek to see sunrise, The breakfast will be ready when we come from sunrise view, we had our breakfast, relaxed for sometime, waiting for our clothes to get dried which got wet in Ride. the jeep which dropped us came for pickup by 11. We started our journey back plan is to ride back to Chennai, since our previous day ride was full on rain, we planned to stay in madurai visit Meenakshiamman temple and back to Chennai.
