Peruvannamuzhi Dam
പെരുവണ്ണാമൂഴി അണക്കെട്ട്
A reservoir on the Kuttiyadi River with islands in the lake, a crocodile breeding center and speedboat rides, surrounded by plantation scenery.
The reservoir is about 60 kilometers from the city, in the same Kuttiyadi River basin as Kakkayam. You can take a speedboat to visit the islands in the lake. Nearby are a crocodile breeding center and a small garden. The surroundings are rubber and coconut plantations, making it a good combination with Kakkayam or the Janakikadu forest trail for a one-day self-drive trip. Entry is cheap, but boat rides cost extra. Public transport is inconvenient, so hiring a car is recommended.
Opening hours
About 09:00–17:00
