Eagles flight longest zipline adventure activities is the most popular zipline adventure activities in suryanelli munnar kerala. On the way to peak by jeep you will find zipline munnar place. No need to pay extra to reach this place. You can do this activity while returning. But the end point of the zipline is far from that place, in the opposite direction of this route. Jeep should go to the zipline finishing point to pick up the person. This costs extra and driver asks an extra amount of 500 INR (i think this is per jeep. We couple booked single jeep. If you are in group then the amount 500 INR should be shared). I managed at 250 INR.
I booked the zipline ride on the spot. Eagles flight longest zipline adventure activities ride price was 3000 INR per head. A person having weight upto 120 kg can ride without any issue. They are adding adjusting weights by adding more so as to keep strong. Since person will cover 1.8 KM at a speed of 90 km/h, more weight person can enjoy the ride as well.

Best time to visit kolukkumalai peak
Best time to visit kolukkumalai peak is during october to to march early morning to watch sunrise.
Warning
Wear anti-skid sports shoes
After kolukkumalai top view point you need to walk down to reach jaguar rock which is very risky and dangerous
Walk very very slow while coming down or moving up. One should take it very seriously. While coming down in hill areas, we are tryign to pull body slight back. Similarly, while moving up in hills, we are tryign to pull body weight to front side. Chance of skid while coming down is high. I would highly recommend to hold the hand of each other while coming down although you feel not a problem. Incident happens at the places like this. Similarly while moving up, your body will try to keep the movement. Your body will not stop once moved one step up due to body weight. You should hold the hands of each other. One girl having normal weight was moving up. She was very happy and moving forward compared to her parents. We couples were one step higher level. She was moving towards us. While moving up, she could not able to stop herself and not even realised that she is crossing the edge. I hold her hand at the end and pulled to stop. Else there could have been an incident. So, don’t take risk although you think no risk for the sake of my family meaning.
Ladies with kids, senior citizen, over weight person can walk till the peak but avoide to go jaguar rock point.
Be very careful while taking photos. Focus of standing safely instead of focusing best shot.
