This is a sacred area for the Hindus, and the trek to this area starts from Thirunelli temple. We also had great birding in this area.

To begin with this is a really really ancient temple located in the brahmagiri range bordering Karnataka. The exact date of foundation is unknown but what's known is that this place is known as the Kashi of the south. People come here to wash their sins away ,and be close to the Divine. Temple timings are morning till 12pm and evening 5.30-8pm. The temple has old architecture and the vibes feel so good here. I personally felt so uplifted out here ,surely something divine and positive . PS: people other then Hindu faith are not allowed inside the temple However they are free to enjoy the premises . There is lots of shopping around the temple footsteps I picked up some tea, ayurvedic herbs, honey ,soaps and what not for good price and premium quality (first shop down the steps) The ride to the temple is amazing and from a forest zones , chances of spotting the wild is very very high . Also recommended to travel in Your own transportation, as public transport in this side of the state is dull My humble request is to visit this place and feel good ;)

Close to Pookode lake on the highway you get a good view of the winding road and the valley below if you are there close to sunset time view is great

We visited it in the beginning of Aug, being a rainy season, it was overwhelming water in the falls. The way to the top of the falls was closed due to slippery path and due to high level of water. However, middle and lower fall had plenty of water just falling down to create natural Jacuzzi. Took bath under the natural jaccuzzi and can't explain how wonderful experience it was. The place is clean and well maintained. Older people can also go till the lower and middle of the falls. Path is not challenging to walk. As I was told by the security people there. Oct-Dec would be the best time to visit.

it is very long dam. we tooke jeep as we aere with elders and small kids. the jeep drops at the top. we then took a walk around the dam and the view was really awsome. there is lot of activities there like peddle boating, ziplining etc, kids didnt do as they had already done more in pookode lake and 1 km zip line in way to pookode lake. once in wayanad, it is one of the place everyone visits so we also did. Worth to spend some time there and then move to other turist points in wayanad.

Luckily one of my friend turned out to be friends with a local guide. It was a great experience to travel through the woods and see a flock of Elephants and during our safari ride we saw a Tiger with it's cub. It's good to see that the local people are conserving wildlife over there and living in an eco friendly nature. It's a must visit for wildlife lovers.
