Kerala, despite being one of the most known tourists' paradise, still has some hidden gems which are yet to be explored by many – ensuring them to keep the calm and serene atmosphere that could lull any wanderlust to pure bliss.
In this age of social media, discovering the hidden heavens has become a thing. This tiny piece of paradise in Kottayam is the latest example.
Muthukoramala in Kerala's Kottayam district is a stunning creation of nature, its beauty can create stiff competition for Meeshapulimala.
Tourists have been frequenting this place after seeing the tantalizing videos and photographs on social media. From Kaipalli in Poonjar Thekkekara panchayat, a steep climb uphill leads us to Muthukoramala, a hill station located parallel to the Vagamon Hills. It is a 3 km off-road from Kaipalli. Once there you can simply take a stroll and enjoy the view. This is an ideal place for adventure travellers as well.
What to see there
The gorges of Muthukoramala can be very dangerous. It is a steep ravine thousands of feet deep. Hence, standing on the top of the rock can be risky. The cold wind that keeps blowing makes the spot even more dicer. Having said that, Muthukoramala is like a paradise with its foggy surroundings, flickering clouds, and distant views.
Muthukoramala is definitely known as the Meesapulimala of Kottayam. The forest area is about three kilometres long and is covered with grass, rocks, small shrubs and trees. One can enjoy a beautiful view of nature by climbing up the towering grass. From the top of the cliff, which can be seen in all 4 directions, one can see all 4 districts. During the monsoon season, the snow-capped mountains provide a feast for the eyes. Not to forget the cool climate!
