The journey to Mannavanur Lake itself is very nice...beautiful route. Less toursit, serene surrounding, loads of greenery is what Mannavanur Lake is all about. One has to come to Kodai for good restaurants since there is nothing on the way except for one small joint - might be difficult for vegetarians.

Have you ever been to a hill station and wondered "why is this place so populated and polluted?" Forget them, plan your next trip to Meghamalai. Visiting hours 6am-530pm.

Ramakkalmedu is a hill station located about 15 Km from Nedumkandom. The main tourism importance of this place is the presence of excellent wind from TamilNadu. Rolling green hills and the fresh mountain air make Ramakalmedu an enchanting retreat.

6. Pampadum Shola National Park
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 22 reviews
Reviewed By SAVIN55 - Kochi (Cochin), India
It is a smallest national park in Kerala, India. It is situated around 35 kms away from famous hill-station Munnar towards the road to Koviloor and Vattavada, Kearala. The name´"Pampadum Shola" means, "the forest where the snake dances", derived from three Tamil (one of the Dravidian languages) words, "paamp", which means "snake"; "aattam", means "dance"; and "cholai", means "forest". "Shola" may be considered as a mis-speller of "cholai". The park protects a moderate amount of montane evergreen shola forest that is associated with the wildlife rich Eravikulam National Park. also you can see animals in morning time, Book stay in advance.

Reviewed By JojijosephTDPA - Kochi (Cochin), India
The Meghamala Wildlife Sanctuary should be extended so that the rich flora and fauna of the area can be protected. The wildlife in the area includes elephants, tigers, leopards, gaurs, mangoose, variety of deers, birds and reptiles but the large scale plantations and encroachments are causing threat to the preservation of the wildlife and forest. With proper roads, restriction in entry timings and security arrangements the area can be one of the best wildlife sanctuary's in India. I have been to Megamalai thrice and must say that the place is blessed by the nature and the Mountains, forest, wildlife, climate etc will attract any person visiting the place.

We visited Kodaikanal on 28/09/2017. One can see this beautiful and magnificent waterfall while entering into Kodaikanal. It is a beauty of nature. Since this was festive season, it was crowded. This is just on road side. One can spend half an hour and enjoy this beautiful waterfall. Worth seeing and not to be missed.
