Karlad Lake
കർലാട് തടാകം
A small forest lake near Banasura with zip lines, kayaking and lakeside trails, one of Wayanad's most popular outdoor adventure spots.
The lake is surrounded by forested hills and has been developed by the Kerala Tourism Department into an adventure park. Its signature attraction is the high zip line across the lake, and there is also kayaking, pedal boats, rock climbing and archery, plus a lakeside trail of about 1 km. It sits about 10 km from the Banasura Sagar Dam, so the two are often visited on the same day. Each activity is charged separately, and weekend queues can be long.
Opening hours
About 09:00–17:00
