It is the one of the most beautiful peaks in the western Ghats. Paithalmala is the tallest peak in the district of Kannur. Trekking is the main attraction. Small ponds and lakes are there. Surely it can make your kids happy.

Madayipara

Reviewed By Praveenop - Chennai (Madras), India

Madai Paara literally is a huge, huge laterite rock which measures about 600 acres. This place is not for people who seek adventure, It is a place for nature lovers.This small place and its surroundings are different from the surroundings. This is also a great for lepidopterologists ( study of moths and butterflies). If one come here during the right time one can see some of the worlds largest butterflies. It is a sight !!!! The place also has an ancient temple dedicated to goddess Kali and a fort. One can also see the sea which is far away due to its slight elevation. History also says that this place had hosted ancient Jewish settlers . The name of the small but famous perennial Handheld mirror shaped pond which has never gone dry is even now called Jewda Kulam (Pond of the jews) and the centre of Ezhimala kings and their administration. The laterite hills of Madayi also home of many many species of rare plants and flowering plants. The sunset from here is something that one should not miss. The Madayipara is best visited just after the rains when everything is green and life in this place is at its best.

Aralam wildlife sanctuary

Reviewed By FuriousJo - Bengaluru, India

Aaralam, a sanctuary located at the extreme end of north Kerala, probably the last sanctuary towards the northern side of the state. Due to specifics of the geography and vegetation it breeds close to 327 species of butterflies among the 1500 odd species you find in India and 17000 Species world wide. Heaven on earth, lush green, clean water ,fresh air and untouched by human public.
