How to reach : 

Chembra is around 300 kms from Bangalore , if you are going by bike or car then the route is reach Gundlupet(karnataka) take a right after that which leads to Kerala. Remember you will enter the forest area which will be closed from 9 pm to 6 am , so plan your journey according to this. Then reach kalpetta (Kerala) from there chembra is around 20 kms.

Here are the details for the travellers who want to use public transport like me and my friends did..

Direct buses are available till Kalpetta(Kerala) from Bangalore, both Karnataka and Kerala transport services ply to this route. As we did not booked any tickets and as it was a peak season we where not able to get into those buses. Alternate thing is via Mysore.

From Bangalore we started to Mysore from Satellite busstand there are hell lot of buses to Mysore throughout day and night and almost all buses start from Satellite bus stand.We started around 12 am and reached Mysore around 3 am. From Mysore first bus to Kalpetta starts around 4:30 am and it takes around 3 hrs to reach Kalpetta ( Kerala). So my suggestion is start little late from Bangalore to Mysore. From Kalpetta there will be frequent buses to Mapad town (Kerala) which is around 12 kms take that bus.  You can have breakfast , pack snacks and water bottles from there. From Mapad you can hier a jeep or auto to chembra peak (8 kms) . Auto guy charged us 200 Rs one way. We took his number and while returning we called the same guy as there is no public transport facility available to the Chembra.
