About Mattupetty & Echo Point

Mattupetty and Echo Point are usually visited together as a single relaxed half-day trip from Munnar town. The Mattupetty reservoir, built originally to support the Indo-Swiss dairy project nearby, offers calm-water speedboat and pedal-boat rides framed by pine-covered hills. A short drive further is Echo Point, where the still lake and surrounding slopes genuinely bounce your voice back across the water — a simple novelty that delights almost every visitor. Between the two stops, it’s an easy-paced outing that pairs well with a Top Station or Eravikulam visit on the same day.

Best Time to Visit

Year-round; mornings are best for boating and clearer photographs

How to Reach

13 km from Munnar town, an easy half-day trip by taxi or auto-rickshaw along a well-maintained hill road.
