Attraction

Sunset point

Sunset Point is a well-known viewpoint in Old Munnar, located on the Sabarimala-Kodaikkanal Road in the Devikulam area of Idukki district, Kerala. As a designated view point, it provides visitors with sweeping vistas of the misty Western Ghats, rolling tea plantations, and the lush valleys characteristic of the Munnar hill station region. The spot is especially valued for its unobstructed western horizon, making it a favored location to witness the sun dip below the mountain range. Travelers on 2-3 day Munnar itineraries often include this stop during evening hours for photography and relaxation. The best time to visit is during the post-monsoon months from September to March, when the skies are clearer and the hills are at their most vibrant green.
