Stingray Tribe Chembra Peak

A complete wilderness experience and a chance to stay on treetop tents.nThe forest has to be experienced in its natural silence and darkness with animals lurking in the darkness.nRuns on an amazing concept of leave on trace. Must try if you're in North Kerala.

Up in the treesnUnder a blanket of stars and the moon light,nDrifting into sleepnWith Birds singing lullabynalong with the roars of Sambhar deers,nand waking up to the rolling fog andnchirping of the birds;nTasting wilderness the right way!nnIf this is what you want to experience, head to the magical Stingray Tribe. With irresponsible camping all around, this is one place, where conscious efforts of 'Leave No Trace' have been taken to not damage the Nature and the wildlife. If you want to experience the real camping life, this is the place you need to be in.nnThe real deal is not just to hang up in the trees, but to bask in the wonders of Nature, appreciate, respect its beauty, and trail responsibly.nnThe safari and the nature walk with Akhil is an encriching experience. A true naturalist, with abundance of knowledge about wildlife. Listening to his wildlife stories, is definitely worth the ride.nnNiyaz & Lisa are amazing hosts, with whom I had great conversations and fun. You are sure to fall in love with how creatively the entire place has been thought of and set up. They guided us through the entire trail, were there throughout, explained every detail and have been so welcoming and warming. It was the best experiences I have had to date and I will keep going back for more.nnIf Solitude and Wilderness, is your calling (even if it isn't), head right here. Every moment will be worth it!

If I am asked to write about my experience at stingray, I would say it was nothing less than magic. Imagine a tent suspended in the middle of a tea plantation and that too in the most eco-friendly manner and you spending a night inside that. I thank the host for being so nice to us and also for serving us mediterranean cuisine and barbeque for dinner which was just yum and also the yummy yummy breakfast. ud83dude0bnnThe morning hike which is included in the package is also one of my favorites where we had a naturalist with us who explained a lot of things about the flora and fauna we saw around.nEverything about stingray was so good that I can write an essay on it. Oops, I forgot to talk about the main thing- the tents. I already miss lying in those suspended tents and gazing at the stars and the moon. Then waking up in the morning and watching the beautiful sunrise, going for morning hike and then directly go and take a dip in the natural pool that we have inside the property. After which the host serves amazing breakfast. Still feels like a dream.nnThank you Niyas ikka, Liza, Arjun, Sijo, Joseph, Unni and everyone for being the best host ever and making our stay at stingray memorable. ud83dude0d
