Anamudi, Mountain peak in Kerala, India.
Anamudi rises to 2,695 meters above sea level, making it the highest elevation point in India outside the Himalayan mountain ranges.
The mountain's geological formation dates back to the Neoproterozoic era, featuring Munnar Granite that emerged through deep earth intrusion processes.
The name translates to 'Elephant Head' in Malayalam language, reflecting the regional connection to these magnificent animals that inhabit the surrounding areas.
Visitors require permits from the Forest Department at Eravikulam National Park to access the mountain trails between November and May.
The mountain slopes support the Neelakurinji flowers, which follow a specific biological cycle, blooming only once every twelve years.
