The highest peak in the Wayanad region of Kerala, Chembra Peak, stands at an altitude of 2100 meters above sea level. The hill is close to the town of Meppadi, which makes the mountain easily accessible on foot. Nestled amidst the beautiful Wayanad hills and the adjoining Nilgiri hills, the trek to the peak is a rejuvenating affair.
