Discover Muthanga

In Muthanga, a two-hour jeep safari is complemented by two accommodation options of different sizes. The Forest Department offers the safari in the Muthanga Wildlife Sanctuary. Accommodation ranges from an eco-cottage for up to four people to a dormitory with 188 beds. When choosing where to stay, you can therefore take into account both the experience you have planned and the type of accommodation you prefer.

Eco-cottage and dormitory

The Serambi eco-cottage has two storeys. There is a large room upstairs and a small room downstairs; each has a spacious veranda. The cottage can accommodate up to four people in total. This means that the maximum occupancy and the layout across two levels are specific factors to consider when choosing: compare the limit with the number of people travelling with you, and consider whether the room layout meets your needs. Check current availability before planning a stay.

The Forest Department also operates a dormitory in Muthanga with 188 beds. This is a different capacity figure from the eco-cottage’s maximum occupancy. The accommodation types also differ: a two-storey cottage with two rooms is one option, and a dormitory is the other. When comparing the options, you can first decide what type you are looking for and what occupancy would suit your trip. The dormitory’s bed count and the cottage’s maximum occupancy refer to different facilities.

Jeep safari in the Muthanga Wildlife Sanctuary

The Forest Department offers a two-hour jeep safari in the designated tourist forest zone of the Muthanga Wildlife Sanctuary. An experienced guide and a driver accompany the tour. The duration gives you a specific timeframe for this activity when planning your stay. The combination of a jeep, guide and driver also makes clear that this is a guided offering. Ecotourism package availability may change; confirm it before your visit if you plan to take the safari.

Muthanga in the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary

The Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary consists of two separate areas: Muthanga and Tholpetty. Keep this distinction in mind when planning your trip. The two names refer to separate areas and are not interchangeable names for the same area. The jeep safari is associated with the Muthanga Wildlife Sanctuary, while the wider Wayanad name covers both areas.

You can divide your location decision into two questions: Would you like to include the jeep safari in Muthanga in your stay, and what type of accommodation suits your space requirements? The two-hour tour gives you a timeframe for the activity. For an overnight stay, the information about the eco-cottage’s room layout and maximum occupancy, as well as the dormitory’s bed count, can help you decide. If Muthanga is the location you want, you can focus your holiday rental search on this name.
