    If you’re okay with a longer day, catching a bus from Calicut Airport to Wayanad Bus Stand is pretty straightforward. The main service departs roughly every two hours and the journey takes about 8 to 9 hours. From the bus stand, a local bus to the Chembra trailhead runs every 90 minutes and takes around 1½ hours. That puts you at roughly 9 to 10 hours total, but you can break the trip by stopping at Sterling Vythiri Wayanad just half a kilometre from the bus stop to grab a bite or a quick rest before heading up.
