The Complete Guide to Kolukkumalai Sunrise Trek

The Kolukkumalai Sunrise Trek takes you through Kottagudi Tea Plantations in the Theni district of Tamil Nadu, home to the world’s highest tea plantations and to one of the most heavenly sunrises. 

Kolukkumalai is the gate to trekkers’ paradise, the second highest peak in the Western Ghats, Meesapulimala. The path from Kolukkumalai to Meesapulimala Peak Trek  has recently been closed and has been declared government reserved property.

You can still catch a glimpse of this beauty from the top of Kolukkumalai that lies on the border with Tamil Nadu to your left and Kerala to your right as you head uphill.

Till date, the only route to Kolukkumalai starts in Kerala from the town of Munnar approximately 32 kilometers away. 

Kolukkumalai is only accessible by jeeps because of the rugged terrain. Walking up this route is not permitted. 

Jeeps are available from the town of Suryanelli and it takes you about 2 hours to reach the drop-off point after which you trek!

The trek is about 1.5 km and is an easy one to do. However, it is hard during monsoons because it gets slippery and windy. It can still be done by beginners with ease.

We have mentioned here a few details about how one can go about this trek, hope you find it helpful. Leave any comments or doubts you might have in the comments.

What to Watch Out For

1. the heavenly sunrise from the hilltop.

Trekking before sunrise, super early in the morning while it is still dark, is very difficult. But it is all worth it when you reach the top and the most breathtakingly beautiful sunrise greets you with its arms wide open.

3. The Trail through the World’s Highest Tea Plantation

Kolukkumalai is home to the world’s highest altitude tea gardens that produce organic tea leaves having a unique taste and aroma owing to it being cultivated at this elevation.

Best Season to do the Kolukkumalai Sunrise Trek

Kolukkumalai Peak: Experience the best sunrise in South India

After travelling continuously for close to a day, I took a shower to freshen up and re-energise myself. As I came out, all I could see were tea plantations covering every inch of the earth surrounding me. I tried to see the farthest I could to spot something different, but the scenery was monotonous.

I was in the middle of a gigantic tea plantation spread across hundreds of acres of land and surrounded by tall, intimidating mountains.

It is one of the many experiences you will have while staying in Kolukkumalai. 

Famous for having the highest tea plantations globally, Kolukkumalai is a place you must visit if you want to have an offbeat experience in Munnar. From beautiful sunrises and starry night skies to some of the freshest tea you’ll ever taste, Kolukkumalai is a delight for all your senses.

Black Eagles Camp organised our trip to Kolukkumalai. Nestled right in the middle of the Kolukkumalai Tea Estate, Black Eagles Camp is a tour operator that provides food, camping and a guided trek to witness the famous sunrise from the Kolukkumalai peak. 

You can find similar tour operators in Kolukkumalai but I recommend Black Eagles Camp as we had a great experience with them. This guide gives you a detailed itinerary that we followed with them as we experienced the Kolukkumalai Tea Estate in a wholesome manner.

Where is Kolukkumalai?

Kolukkumalai is a hilly village in Tamil Nadu located in Theni. It is on the border of Munnar (Kerala) and hence, you can see both Kerala and Tamil Nadu from the Kolukkumalai peak.

The Kolukkumalai Tea Estate is home to the highest tea plantations in the world. At 7,130 feet, the Kolukkumalai peak is one of the highest in the Western Ghats. 

Due to the rugged terrains of this hilltop village, it is only accessible by jeep from Suryanelli, a town in Munnar. You’re also not allowed to bring your vehicles as Kolukkumalai is home to private tea estates.

2 ways to experience the famous Kolukkumalai Sunrise

The highlight of experiencing Kolukkumalai is witnessing the sunrise from the Kolukkumalai peak. Depending on the time you have, this can be done in two ways.

If you’re short on time, you can go for the Kolukkumalai Jeep Safari which is highly commercialised and attracts a lot of crowds.

But if you’ve time, I would recommend you opt for the Kolukkumalai trekking and camping packages with one of the tour operators in Kolukkumalai. They provide a more wholesome and immersive experience in Kolukkumalai as compared to the Kolukkumalai Jeep Safari.

In this guide, I’ll be talking extensively about the Kolukkumalai trekking and camping experience but if you’re short on time, let me also tell you how you can make the most of the Kolukkumalai Jeep Safari.

1. Kolukkumalai Jeep Safari

kolukkumalai peak

The Kolukkumalai Jeep Safari is ideal for you if you only have a few hours to spare for Kolukkumalai and want to watch the sunrise from the Kolukkumalai peak.

For the Kolukkumalai Jeep Safari, you need to make a booking with one of the jeep drivers in Suryanelli. Suryanelli is a town in Munnar which is also the starting point to reach Kolukkumalai. 

Ideally, you should pre-book your hotel in or around Suryanelli and ask the hotel to arrange a jeep for you. All the hotels in Suryanelli have a tie-up or at least know some jeep drivers who’ll take you for the Kolukkumalai sunrise.

You can also enquire for jeeps at the Suryanelli jeep stand but it’s always better to plan to avoid any delays or confusion.

The Kolukkumalai Jeep Safari starts at 5 am early morning hence make sure that you’ve checked in to your hotel early the previous day and have sufficient sleep.

Typically, the price for the jeep safari is INR 2,000 per jeep for the entire trip. If you’re alone you can also club with other people as you’re not charged per head.

From your pickup point at Suryanelli, it takes around 45 minutes to an hour to reach the sunrise drop-off point at Kolukkumalai. The ride to the top of Kolukkumalai is a complete off-road experience through the tea plantations. As you’ll be travelling in the dark, you may not see anything.

Once you’re dropped off, you have to trek for 1.5 km to reach the Kolukkumalai peak. The sunrise at Kolukkumalai happens at 6 am. You’ll see the sun rising through the clouds in the background of the mountains. It is a sight to behold.

You can also visit the Tiger Rock nearby after that which is a naturally-formed rock that resembles the face of a tiger.

After spending some time here, return to your jeep and you’re taken back to Suryanelli through the same route. This time though, you’ll be able to see the tea gardens surrounding you unlike previously when it was dark.

2. Kolukkumalai trekking and camping 

kolukkumalai tea estate

If you have at least a couple of days, I would recommend you to go for one of the Kolukkumalai trekking and camping packages provided by the tour operators in Kolukkumalai.

It helps you experience Kolukkumalai at your own pace and observe things that you otherwise may not see with the Kolukkumalai Jeep Safari.

We went with the Black Eagles Camp based in Kolukkumalai who have been organising tours in Kolukkumalai for many years.

Their tour package is for two days and one night. It comprises camping, food and a guided trek to witness the sunrise from the top.

Additionally, you get to visit a tea factory, walk in the middle of tea plantations and visit a waterfall where you can also take a dip. The entire package costs INR 2,000 per person (rates may vary). 

For food, you are served tea and biscuits in the evening, some barbeque starters during the bonfire afterwards, a wholesome and freshly prepared dinner at night and a healthy breakfast the following day that includes puttu-kadala, bread and egg bhurji and freshly cut fruits.

The tent that they provide accommodates two people, including their luggage. You get access to toilets and bathrooms near the tents that are well maintained.

The sunrise trek happens early the next morning, which I will discuss later. 

Apart from the trekking and camping package, you can inquire separately about the other activities at their campsite. They have activities like ziplining, kayaking and slacklining, which were under construction when we visited them. 

How to book the Kolukkumalai trekking and camping package?

You can DM the Black Eagles Camp on Instagram and enquire about any questions you may have. To make a booking, you have to pay them a token amount in advance.

Note: Typically, all tour operators function in this manner.

Be sure to book one of their activities if you plan to come here with your friends or family. If I had to choose one, I would recommend you go ziplining for an adrenaline rush.

You glide along a rope at a considerable height with the tea plantations below you for a distance of 1.8 km. It is said to be the longest zipline in India. It’s hard to get an experience like this anywhere in India. 

Kolukkumalai trek itinerary (2 days/1 night)

Let me take you through the detailed itinerary I followed with the Black Eagles Camp which was for 2 days and 1 night that helped me experience Kolukkumalai immersively.

kolukkumalai jeep safari

On day 1, you have to report to Suryanelli after lunch. As mentioned before, Suryanelli is a tiny settlement on the outskirts of Munnar known as the starting point for Kolukkumalai.

Suryanelli is 30 km from Munnar; however, it can take up to 1.5 hours to reach there due to uneven roads, so keep this in mind.

Try to reach Munnar early morning. After reaching Munnar, have your breakfast at one of the restaurants in Munnar.

After breakfast, you can explore other places in Munnar before heading off to Suryanelli. But make sure you reach Munnar by 7-8 am to give sufficient time for different places.

Or you can take it easy as we did.

As there are no direct buses from Munnar to Suryanelli, we took a bus to Chinnakanal (on the way to Suryanelli), which took close to an hour, after which we started exploring Chinnakanal on foot as we walked towards Suryanelli. 

kolukkumalai sunrise

This is a fun experience to have as you get to take in the sceneries, experience village life and have refreshments at regular intervals. The only drawback is that you can get tired quickly, especially in broad daylight, so hydrate yourself regularly and wear a hat. 

Pro tip:  Have lemon soda from one of the local shops whenever you feel thirsty to quench your thirst.

P.S. You can also hire a shared jeep from Chinnakanal to Suryanelli and it takes only half an hour.

If possible, try to have lunch at one of the small restaurants in Suryanelli town itself. The ambience may not be there, but the food you get at one of these restaurants is local and an excellent value for money.

Call your coordinator (from the Black Eagles Camp) once you have lunch. To be better prepared, you can call him/her in advance to update them about your arrival in Suryanelli. In any case, you’ll get a call from one of these coordinators asking you about your current location.

kolukkumalai tea

Your coordinator will pick you up from Suryanelli (near the Church of South India) in a jeep. The journey from Suryanelli to Kolukkumalai, or more specifically, the base camp of the Black Eagles Camp, begins from here.

Keep all your senses active because you wouldn’t want to miss this section of the journey!

As you start your journey, you will be passing tea estates and a few human settlements along the way.

The further you travel, the more you are surrounded by tall mountains, tea plantations and misty weather. The journey is along zig-zag roads as you ascend the hills, but overall, the trip is smooth till you reach Upper Surianalle Estate, HML.

munnar to kolukkumalai

This is your only stop on this journey before you reach the base camp of the Black Eagles. 

Fun fact:  Upper Surianalle Estate (also known as the Kolukkumalai tea factory) is an old tea factory run by Harrisons Malayalam Limited (HML) that produces tea leaves of different kinds and qualities to be exported to countries like Australia, New Zealand, and the US.

You can walk around and explore the nearby areas of the tea factory.

There is a small house outside this tea factory where an old uncle prepares tea. Have your cup of tea from here and enjoy it outside amidst the presence of tea plantations.

best time to visit kolukkumalai

After spending some time at Upper Surianalle Estate, you finally make way for the base camp of Black Eagles. In the next section of the journey, you will be passing along Kolukkumalai Tea Estate with tall mountains in the background. 

You will be travelling in a jeep in off-road conditions for close to half an hour. This journey was one of the most intense off-roads I had experienced personally.

You will be shaking in different directions during this bumpy ride. So make sure you hold on to your seats and embrace yourself for what is to come.

kolukkumalai trekking and camping

Once you reach the base camp, your coordinator will allot your respective tents. Apart from the tents, there is a kitchen cum storage space where the cook prepares food, a dining place where food is served and toilets/bathrooms if you want to freshen up.

The entire ambience of the campsite is breathtaking as all you see are tea plantations everywhere.

You might want to freshen up after being on the road for so long. The toilets/bathrooms are well maintained, with clean water running through the taps. 

kolukkumalai tea factory

Freshly prepared tea and biscuits are served sometime soon. As you have a lot of time to kill in the evening, you can walk around and explore the nearby areas or chill at the campsite with your friends/fellow travellers.

By the time the sun sets in, the weather becomes chilly. The entire campsite becomes lit with lights, and a bonfire is set close to the kitchen where you can play games and socialise with fellow travellers.

Meanwhile, a few barbeque starters are served.

By around 8 pm, dinner is ready, and the kitchen staff will serve food in the dining area. By this time, you should be having a layer of jacket/sweater because the winds become chilly.

suryanelli to kolukkumalai

Stargazing is a must when you are here. If you are lucky enough, you can find a clear sky full of stars shining at night. You should not miss this, especially if you are into astrophotography.

Go to sleep early as you have to wake up around 5 am the next day to trek to the Kolukkumalai peak from where you will witness the sunrise. Your coordinator will be reminding you of this at night.

It is better to keep an alarm for 5 am so that you have time to freshen up. By 5:30 am, your trek starts.

where is kolukkumalai

Wake up by 5 am. Remember, the more you delay, the more your chances are of missing the sunrise. You do not want to miss this surreal experience!

Try to occupy one of the toilets as soon as you wake up to avoid the rush. Freshen up, wear a jacket and get ready with your mobile cameras/DSLR. 

Your coordinator will lead you along with other travellers to the peak of Kolukkumalai. It is pitch dark at this time, so switch on your flashlights or wear a headlamp to guide you along the route.

You will be passing through tea plantations and a forest for close to half an hour. The terrains will be uneven, so wear proper outdoor shoes.

kolukkumalai munnar

You know you have reached the top when you see the path becoming narrower and the landscape around you opening up. 

There are neighbouring hills on one side covered in clouds with orangish-yellow hues of the rising sun in the background. On the other side, you get a bird’s eye view of a valley of tea plantations with a few human settlements scattered across different areas.

The only drawback of witnessing the sunrise from the Kolukkumalai peak is the crowd. Many people come from another route via the Jeep Safari to catch the sunrise from the top. 

kolukkumalai weather

You will be spending close to an hour watching the sunrise from the top, lighting up the entire landscape with clouds moving in the background. This was undoubtedly the best sunrise I had witnessed in South India. 

The scenes are perfect for landscape photography and time-lapses. There is also a famous rock nearby called Tiger Rock as it appears in the shape of a Tiger. It is another spot ideal for photography.

Fun fact: You can see Meesapulimala (Kerala’s second-highest peak) from the Kolukkumalai peak. Ask your coordinator for the same.

kolukkumalai trekking

After close to an hour, your coordinator will guide you back to the campsite via the same route. Now that you have sunlight, you will be witnessing various panoramic landscapes that you missed previously while trekking to the Kolukkumalai peak in the dark.

Back at the campsite, the kitchen staff serves you breakfast, after which you pack up and get ready to go back towards Suryanelli. But wait! The trip isn’t over yet. 

Instead of taking a jeep, you will be walking through the Kolukkumalai Tea Estate, crossover a village and get to take a dip in a waterfall. This experience finally ends with a visit to the tea factory again in a jeep.

By the time you reach Suryanelli, it is afternoon or close to 1 pm.

The tea plantations that you walk through, once you leave your campsite, is the one that is visible from the top of Kolukkumalai. This is also the same path you took to reach the Black Eagles base camp via a jeep.

The walk is beautiful as you will be walking through a landscape that looks like a maze. There are ample opportunities for photography here.

After a certain point, you reach a village that transports you back to your childhood. You see local folks living their daily lives in tiny houses. These are friendly people who are more than happy to strike up a conversation with you.

As you continue your journey, you eventually reach a small, cascading waterfall amid tea plantations. The water here is cold and refreshing so take a dip if you can. We spent close to an hour here. 

For the final leg of your journey, you are taken back to the Upper Surianalle Estate in a jeep. 

You can buy tea leaves from the reception and also take a tea tour for a nominal fee of INR 100 per person inside the Kolukkumalai tea factory. A guide will explain the various processes and methods used in preparing tea leaves as you go through different rooms and old-school equipment.

Go for this experience because there is a lot to learn. Photography is not allowed during the tea tour.

Finally, your coordinator drops you off at Suryanelli in a jeep. This is where you say goodbye to all the adventures you had in the company of tea plantations as you ease into civilisation again.

How to reach Munnar?

You have to reach Munnar first before heading off to Suryanelli, the starting point for Kolukkumalai. There are different ways in which you can reach Munnar.

If you are coming from Kochi, the cheapest way to reach Munnar would be by taking a government bus (KSRTC) which is available frequently. If you are coming from nearby states like Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, you can get inter-state government buses to Kochi.

The nearest railway station to Munnar is Aluva, which is 110 kilometres from Munnar. Ernakulam Railway station (Kochi) is the nearest railway station after that at a distance of 130 km from Munnar.

Cochin International Airport is the closest airport to Munnar at a distance of 110 km from Munnar. If you are coming from a distant state, the most practical option would be to take a flight to Kochi and then take a bus to Munnar.

How to travel from Munnar to Kolukkumalai?

munnar kolukkumalai

There is no way to reach Kolukkumalai directly from Munnar. You first need to travel to Suryanelli, which is the starting point for Kolukkumalai.

There are no direct buses to Suryanelli from Munnar, however. You have to take a government bus to Chinnakanal, which takes about an hour. After that, you can hire a shared jeep from Chinnakanal to reach Suryanelli, which takes another half an hour.

At Suryanelli, you need to assemble near the Church of South India, from where one of the coordinators of the Black Eagles Camp will pick you up in a jeep. Alternatively, you can also ask them where to meet in Suryanelli as it is a small town.

Best time to visit Kolukkumalai

We visited Kolukkumalai in January. The weather was cool and pleasant, although the temperature dropped considerably at night. However, the night sky was clear, and so was the sunrise.

Ideally, the cooler months from September to March would be an excellent time to visit Kolukkumalai. It is better to avoid the monsoon months, especially June and July, as the terrain becomes slippery.

Best travel tips for Kolukkumalai

kolukkumalai meesapulimala

Keep these things in mind before heading off to Kolukkumalai.

  • It is essential to wear sports/trekking shoes to get a good grip on the rough terrains.
  • Network connectivity is hard to get once you are in the mountains.
  • Carry a towel and swimwear if you plan to take a dip in the waterfall.
  • Carry a jacket/sweater as it becomes cold at night and early morning.
  • Don’t have a heavy lunch on Day 1, as you will be traversing through off-road conditions for close to half an hour while leaving for Kolukkumalai.
  • Although there are plug points in the Black Eagles campsite, carry a power bank preferably.
  • Don’t miss out on your DSLR/phone camera, as you will get ample opportunities for photography.
  • Do not miss the sunrise hike at any cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which is the best time to visit kolukkumalai.

You can visit Kolukkumalai any time of the year except during monsoons when trekking in Kolukkumalai is risky due to the slippery conditions. September to March is the best time to visit Kolukkumalai as the landscape is greener and the weather is cooler as compared to the other months of the year.

Can we trek to Kolukkumalai?

You cannot trek or even take your vehicle to Kolukkumalai because the terrains are uneven and hence, not ideal. Moreover, as Kolukkumalai is home to private tea estates, entry is restricted. 

However, you can go to Kolukkumalai with authorised jeep drivers in Suryanelli or with tour operators in Kolukkumalai who will be having a jeep of their own.

How to reach Kolukkumalai peak?

To reach the Kolukkumalai peak, you need to book a jeep first via your hotel in Suryanelli or by going to the Suryanelli jeep stand. The jeep driver will pick you up at 5 am from your location in Suryanelli and take you through the tea plantations of Kolukkumalai.

It takes around 45 minutes to an hour to reach the drop-off point. From there, you have to trek another 1.5 km to reach the Kolukkumalai peak. From here, you can view the sunrise at 6 am and also visit Tiger-Rock nearby. 

Alternatively, you can also reach Kolukkumalai peak by signing up with one of the tour operators in Kolukkumalai.

What is the Kolukkumalai Sunrise Jeep Safari?

The Kolukkumalai Sunrise Jeep Safari (also known as the Kolukkumalai Sunrise Package) is a popular package provided by the jeep drivers in Suryanelli, the starting point of Kolukkumalai. 

In this package, you’ll be picked up at Suryanelli around 5 am and taken through the Kolukkumalai tea plantations for close to an hour before reaching the drop-off point. From here, you trek for another 1.5 km before witnessing the sunrise from the Kolukkumalai peak. You can also visit Tiger-Rock nearby.

After that, you’re taken back to Suryanelli through the same route. The entire package costs INR 2,000 per jeep and every jeep accommodates 6-8 people.

kolukkumalai stay

Although you’ll see tea plantations everywhere in Munnar, you’ll rarely spend time in the middle of tea plantations experiencing everything that nature offers.

The camping and trekking experience at Kolukkumalai that I experienced offers you a chance to do exactly that. 

Be it drinking tea right from the tea gardens in front of you, witnessing the spectacular sunrise from the Kolukkumalai peak or dipping in a pool amidst tea plantations, there are so many things you can experience and observe at Kolukkumalai.

All of this was possible thanks to the Black Eagles Camp who let us experience Kolukkumalai in an offbeat manner. I highly recommend you sign up with them or one of the tour operators there so that you have the most wholesome experience in Kolukkumalai.

If not, you can always go for the Kolukkumalai Jeep Safari but keep in mind that you’ll only be experiencing a slice of Kolukkumalai while missing out on so many things that can make your trip more enjoyable.

I hope you find this guide helpful and valuable. If you have any doubts, let me know in the comments and I’ll be happy to help.

kolukkumalai sunrise trek

Nice experience. They have lots of camps. The early morning off-road sunrise point with Jeep (approx 8Km) was good. The food quality and taste were nice along with music and bone fire. They could improve a little hygiene and should provide light inside the camp. The money that they charged was worth it. All staff was polite and humble.

Situated in Tamil Nadu, the Kolukkumalai Sunrise Trek provides an incredible opportunity to witness the beauty of nature unfolding as the sun rises over the highest tea plantations in the world. Reaching the top of Kolukkumalai is an adventure, and the journey is as rewarding as the destination.

Reaching Suryanelli: The Base Camp

The trek starts from Suryanelli, a small town in the lap of the western ghats. The nearest railway station to reach Suryanelli is in Bodinayakanur, which is well-connected to major cities in Tamil Nadu. From Bodinayakanur, you can hire a taxi or take a local bus to Suryanelli.

Kolukkumalai Sunrise

The Trek to Kolukkumalai: A Challenging Yet Rewarding Experience

Once you reach Suryanelli, you can begin your trek to Kolukkumalai. The base camp is at the top of the tea gardens, offering a stunning view of the surrounding landscape. The trek to the top is challenging, with steep inclines and rugged terrain. However, the breathtaking views and the sense of accomplishment make it all worthwhile.

As you make your way up, you’ll be surrounded by the lush greenery of the tea plantations. The air is filled with the aroma of freshly brewed tea, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere. The tea gardens of Kolukkumalai are known for their high-quality tea, and witnessing the tea cultivation process is an enriching experience.

Witnessing the Sunrise from Kolukkumalai Peak

The highlight of the Kolukkumalai Sunrise Trek is, of course, witnessing the sunrise from the peak. The sun rises only accessible hours to reach the drop-off point, approximately 1.5 km from the Kolukkumalai Sunrise Viewpoint. To witness the sunrise, it is essential to start early in the morning, preferably before dawn.

As the first rays of sunlight smear the sky in hues of pink and orange, the entire landscape is bathed in a warm glow. The view from the top of Kolukkumalai is genuinely awe-inspiring. From here, you can see the rolling hills of the western ghats stretching as far as the eye can see, with the tea plantations forming a carpet of green below.

Essential Tips for the Kolukkumalai Sunrise Trek

1. Wear warm clothing: The temperatures at the top of Kolukkumalai can be pretty chilly, especially in the early morning. It is advisable to wear layers of warm clothing to stay comfortable throughout the trek.

2. Start early in the morning: To witness the sunrise, it is essential to start the trek early in the morning. This will ensure you reach the drop-off point in time to find a good spot to watch the sunrise.

3. Be prepared for a challenging trek: The trek to Kolukkumalai is not for the faint-hearted. It involves steep inclines and rugged terrain. It is essential to be physically fit and mentally prepared for the challenges.

4. Stay hydrated and carry snacks: It is essential to stay hydrated during the trek. Carry an adequate supply of water and some energy-boosting snacks.

5. Enjoy the journey: While witnessing the sunrise from Kolukkumalai is the main highlight of the trek, don’t forget to enjoy the trip itself. Take breaks, soak in the tea gardens’ beauty, and appreciate nature’s serenity.

The Kolukkumalai Sunrise Trek is a truly unforgettable experience. From reaching the base camp at Suryanelli to trekking through the tea gardens and finally witnessing the sunrise from the peak, every step of the trip is filled with awe and wonder. The breathtaking views, the sense of accomplishment, and the serenity of nature make this trek a must-do for nature enthusiasts and adventure lovers alike.

Iconic place and one of the must-see places in Moscow and even in Russia! Besides, if there was only one place to visit in Moscow in 2 days, this place would then be Red Square, without hesitation. Therefore, starting the city tour with Red Square is ideal . Several buildings are on the square, but not all of them have to be visited.

Red Square Moscow

Visiting Saint-Basil’s Cathedral inside

Saint Basil's Cathedral

Take a walk in Zariadye park: one of the coolest things to do in Moscow after visiting Red Square

Zaryadie Park is just a 10-minute walk from St. Basil’s Cathedral, so it’s easy to include in your itinerary if you’re going to visit Moscow in 2 days.

And clearly one of the coolest things to do in Moscow!

  • Open 24 hours a day
  • Good to know! Park Zaryadye is also a place to visit in Moscow in winter. Find out more here: What to do in Moscow in winter?

What to do in Moscow

See the Bolshoi Theatre and discover the Kuznetsky Most district

The Bolshoi Theatre is the most famous Russian theater in the world.

The Bolshoi Theater is the most famous Russian theater in the world. The most economical way to see a presentation at the Bolshoi Theater is to take the tickets on the theater’s official website in advance, so here is our tutorial to help you: How to buy tickets to the Bolshoi? In addition, several pedestrian or one-way streets are located north of the theater. It is therefore very pleasant to find them to leave the main axes of the megalopolis.

IMG_3040 tickets Bolshoi Theatre dress code

Visit the Moscow Kremlin

Visit Kremlin is on top of things to do in Moscow. A place of power for centuries, the Kremlin then shows us a whole different image when viewed from the inside. If you want to visit Moscow in 2 days, the Kremlin is certainly one of the must-see places in Moscow.

  • Opening hours : Daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., except Thursday.
  • See our blog post about visiting the Moscow Kremlin

Moscow Kremlin: skip-the-line tickets and 8 things not to miss

Visit the Cathedral of Christ the Savior

This impressive Moscow Cathedral is the seat of the Russian Orthodox Church. It is a must see if you visit Moscow in 2 days and clearly one of the things to do in Moscow. The Cathedral of Christ the Savior was first built in 1883 in memory of Russia’s victory over Napoleon’s Grand Army. Then in 1931 Stalin ordered its destruction. It was then rebuilt again (identically) only in 2000.

  • Where? Ulitsa Volkhonka 15. At the foot of the Kropotkinskaya metro station.
  • Opening hours . Daily: 10: 00-17: 00, except Monday: 13: 00-17: 00
  • Free entry (some closing restrictions, for example a short)

Good to know! In orthodox religious places, one must avoid excessively uncovered clothing. Women should cover their heads. After visiting the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, you can explore Bolotny Island and Gorky Park. This is one of the routes our guide to Moscow.

Cathedral of Christ the Savior

The old Krasny Oktyabr factory: one of the coolest things to do in Moscow

If you cross the Moskva River by a pedestrian bridge which is located just in front of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, you will enjoy a beautiful view of the city and at the same time you can discover Balchug Island. Furthermore, if you want to visit Moscow in 2 days, you can include this island in your itinerary between the cathedral and Gorky park. Here is the old confectionery factory Krasny Oktyabr, which has gradually turned into a fashionable micro-district. There are then some elements of street art, cafes and restaurants and some Moscow bohemian side. At the end of the island you can see a gigantic 98-meter-high monument dedicated to the Russian reforming tsar Pierre The Great.

Good to know! You can find on this island are the trendiest nightclubs in Moscow. On weekends, there are taxi caps after midnight so there are so many people. On the other hand, if you go there in winter and during the day, the island is quite empty and less interesting to see.

Gorky Park is one of the TOP places to visit in Moscow, because it allows you to better understand the life of the locals and their rhythm. In fact, it’s a huge entertainment park. For example, in winter there is a giant ice rink and in summer – free dance or yoga lessons, sandy beaches for playing volleyball, an outdoor cinema. So, like the locals, have a Stakantchik (ice cream or cooked corn), and enjoy the atmosphere of the place: that’s one of the interesting things to do in Moscow to discover the city.

  • Where? Krymsky Val 9. 20 minutes’ walk from Krasny Oktyabr, along the quays.

Sparrow Hill and Moscow State University

The Sparrow Hill, Vorobiovy Gori in Russian, is the highest point in Moscow. It is rather known to Russians, but less to travelers. A nice view on Moscow opens from the hill, and in particular on the Luzhniki Stadium. In addition, on the hill itself is the Moscow State University: an impressive skyscraper from the Soviet era.

  • How to get there? By bus T7 (35 min) from Oktyaborskaya station, near Gorki Park. By metro (Vorobiovy Gorki station) + climb the hill on foot. On foot along the Moskva along the Gorky Park (1h30) + climb in funiculars.

Good to know! It is possible to cross the Moskva river by funicular. We actually tested it and it was pretty cool! That is one of our favorite things to do in Moscow!

What to do in Moscow

What to do in Moscow in 3 days?

If you are going to visit Moscow in 3 days, it would be interesting to dive into the Soviet era which strongly marked the country and the city. After the Bolshevik Revolution, the capital was transferred from Saint Petersburg to Moscow, in order to mark the change of power. Moscow then became the world showcase for communist ideology. Here are the best things to do in Moscow for 3-day-trip!

VDNKh, visit Moscow of the Soviet era

VDNKh is a large exhibition center in the north of Moscow, where there are still several striking witnesses of the USSR. The most interesting are the Museum of Cosmonauts and the Statue of the Worker and the Kolkhozian , which will certainly impress you with its size!

Visit

GULAG History Museum

The explanations of the museum are very well done. We really have the feeling of going back in time. If you are going to visit Moscow in 3 days and you are interested in history and this subject in particular, I recommend this museum. Visit the GULAG History Museum is one of the most interesting things to do in Moscow.

kolukkumalai sunrise trek

Discover the Patriarche Pounds district

It’s a nice neighborhood in Moscow where you can come across rather affluent locals, but not necessarily very bling-bling. Take a walk in this area is really a cool thing to do in Moscow! In addition, the Ponds of Patriarch is one of the places of Bulgakov’s novel “Master and Margarita”. As this is an interesting area to see, we have included it in a walking tour of Moscow. The route ends at the Moscow Kremlin, which is very convenient, because you will be able to visit Moscow in 3 days by optimizing your trips.

kolukkumalai sunrise trek

What to visit in Moscow in 4 days: TOP things to do in Moscow in 4 days

If you want to visit Moscow in 3 days, you will already see a lot of things. On the other hand, if you stay one more day, you have plenty to do! The Novodevichy Convent, the Tchistie Proudy district and the Izmaylovo Kremlin are very good candidates for you, if you are going to visit Moscow in 4 days.

Visiting Novodevichy Convent in Moscow

The Novodevichy Convent is one of the most brilliant examples of Russian architecture, according to UNESCO. This beautiful complex was built in 1524 and today consists of the convent, but also of a cemetery whose status could be compared to that of Père-Lachaise in Paris. Visiting Novodevichy Convent is one of the great things to do in Moscow, if you want to go a little bit outside of the center!

What to see in Moscow in one day

Discovering Tchistye Proudy district

It’s one of the most popular areas of Moscow, with many cafes, restaurants and bars nearby. It is therefore a place to discover if you want to visit Moscow in 4 days. It is just as pleasant for a stroll as for the discovery of local life. For example, in winter the pond turns into an ice rink.

Visiting the Izmaylovo Kremlin, one of the coolest things to do in Moscow!

The Izmaylovo Kremlin is more of a tourist than a historic place. On the other hand, it is a pretty impressive place to discover, especially on weekends. Inside the Kremlin, there is a flea market where you can find a little bit of everything, but mostly good souvenirs to bring from Moscow. For example, chapka, traditional Russian scarves or matryoshka (Russian dolls). Add the Kremlin and the Izmaïlovo market to your itinerary if you are going to visit Moscow in 4 days, because it is a nice and very colorful place! Visiting the Izmailovo Kremlin is one of the things to do in Moscow, if you want to put colors in your Instagram account! 😉

Things to do Moscow blog

In 4 days, we will have the opportunity to see several Moscow: Classic Moscow, Moscow of old Russia, Soviet Moscow and a little bit of the new Moscow. So what to visit in Moscow on the 5th day of travel?

What to visit in Moscow in 5 days?

Art lovers will be delighted to discover the Tretyakov Gallery and the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, while others will prefer to stroll along Arbat Street, see the buildings of Moskva-City or visit Bunker 42.

Admiring Russian art at Tretyakov Gallery

Founded in 1856 by an industrialist and great lover of art, the gallery has grown over the decades, and then bequeathed to the state. Today the collection includes more than 140,000 pieces, 15,000 of which are paintings. Visiting the Tretyakov Gallery is one of the things to do in Moscow if you want to discover Russian art!

  • Where? Pereoulok Lavrouchinski 10. A 5-minute walk from Tretiakovskaya station
  • Opening hours. Open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. until 9 p.m. Thursday and Friday. Closed on Mondays.
  • Entry tickets. 500 RUB.

Museum to see

Visiting the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts

The Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts presents the treasures of ancient Egypt, the paintings of Rembrandt and Cézanne, a fine collection of Impressionism.

  • Where? Ulitsa Volkhonka 12

  • Entry tickets. The prices vary according to the collections from 300 to 750 RUB.

Walking on Arbat Street

All Russians know Rue Arbat. So, walking on Arbat street is one of the things to do in Moscow. However, after the years, little by little it became very touristy. This is a pedestrian street only. There are souvenir shops, restaurants and cafes there, but it is no longer the most authentic neighborhood in the city.

kolukkumalai sunrise trek

Seeing the buildings of Moskva-City (Moscow City)

Moskva-City is Moscow’s business center, much like Paris’s Defense district. The skyscrapers of Moskva-City are among the tallest in Europe: 373 meters high! Very nice place to see at dusk.

What to visit in Moscow in 6 days or more?

There are still so many places to see, because Moscow is a big megalopolis and there is always something exciting to do there. For example: the ancient Kolomenskoye village or the WINZAVOD contemporary art center .

If you are interested in history and want to see Russian cities on a rather “human scale”, it would certainly be interesting for you to discover the cities of the Golden Ring . For example, it is very easy to get to Sergey Posad from Moscow (less than 2 hours in train). Visiting the Golden Ring is one of the best things to do in Moscow if you are staying more than a 5-6 days.

There are still plenty of places to see in Moscow, however I did my best to list here the best things to do in Moscow, what to see in Moscow in one day, but also in 2, 3, 4 or 5 days in Moscow!

Moscow travel tips:

  • Airport transfer: how to go to Moscow?
  • Where to stay in Moscow (hotels, districts)?
  • Tourist voucher for Russian visa
  • Christmas and New Year in Moscow
