Kurangani
Kurangani is a hill station located in the Theni district of Tamil Nadu, nestled in the Western Ghats near the town of Bodinayakkanur. The name translates to "the place which wears monkeys as its jewels" due to the abundance of langurs in the region.
Kurangani is known for its lush natural beauty, featuring estates that grow spices, coffee, mangoes, and coconuts, as well as a network of over six small streams that merge into the Kottakudi River. The area is characterized by changing weather, cool climate, and rich biodiversity including animals like Indian gaurs, barking deer, leopards, and wild cats. It is a popular spot for trekking, especially the route from Kurangani village to Top Station, which offers scenic views of tea plantations, forests, and grasslands.
The region has a small population living in the central village, and has been a preferred location for Tamil film shoots, thanks to its serene surroundings and unspoiled nature. In 2018, the forest experienced a severe fire but remains an alluring destination for nature lovers and adventure enthusiasts.
