Hotels in Periyar National Park, India
Periyar National Park is located in the Western Ghats of Kerala, India, famous for its elephant herds and the man-made Periyar Lake. The tropical climate keeps things warm year-round, so during the dry season from October to February, you can take a boat safari on the lake to see elephants bathing right at the water's edge. If you come in the rainy months from June to September, the forest becomes exceptionally green and waterfalls roar, perfect for hiking through nearby spice plantations, though animals are harder to spot.
