You can choose to take any of these, however, the more strenuous trek through the national park is recommended as you have a chance to spot black panthers along the way. This place is so scenic and you get plenty of spots to click amazing pictures. There are times when the monsoon is at its peak and this place gets entirely submerged in water.
