Trip to Nelliyampathy..

I was in Kerala for small vacation. So i had a chance to visit the  place near to palakkad. It is  called Nelliyampathy . 

        It is all about beautiful valleys dotted with orange and tea plantations. Nestled in the greenery of the Western Ghats, the tour to Nelliyampathy provided with breathtaking views of the green valleys. Misty green valleys of Nelliyampathy are every tourists dream destination. I could spend a few days in the lap of nature in the beautiful valleys of Nelliyampathy. This place is not very high, it is about 1500m above sea level.

To start with the Dam and the water around was a pleasent one.As we reached the top, we took a room at the ITL resort, which helped us to start fresh.

I took a morning walk during a day there and it was foggy and was so rejuvenating . I felt like being there for my rest of the life , but that was not a possibility.

Padagiri is the highest peak in Nelliyampathy and provides excellent trekking trails for the adventure freaks and mountaineers.

          A Tour to Nelliyampathy is incomplete without watching the Seethakundu Falls. It is a great falls with the water cascading and could have a cool experience.

         The travel to Manpara, was real experaince, the trick road to the tip of the hill was a breath taking one. We really had to hold on to the seat of the jeep.

Another thing which i felt good , was it is not a crowded place too, so you can have your private times very relishing .

This place is almost 60Kms from the nearest Airport which is Coimbatore. 

The nearest Railway station is Palakkad and is about 50Kms away.

a visit to remember...

After being in Pune for some months , i had some time to go out some place near pune.

As i am from Kerala ,i had chances to visit the ayurvedic centres there, but this place was a little surprise for me.A centre named KARE, Kerala Ayurvedic Rejuvenation Centre at the lush green valley Mulshi, just a drive away from Mumbai. It was managed by Dr.Kalmadi.

The location itself was contributing to the healing touch of the massages.They had really a good team of doctors and professionals ready to cure you from the workaholism that i wanted to get out off.KARE had a place for the corporate and family to cherish about.
It was a really a worth travel, they started with a cool dip in the pool and went over with the quality massages. i felt free and flying.

After being at Mulshi, the lake and Dam there was an unavoidable place to visit.

The Lake is formed in the catchments area of Mulshi dam. The Dam is a perfect spot for picnic, with scenic surrounding, unexploited Sahyadri hilly terrains, lusting green dense forests and also some ancient forts like Koraigadh and Dhangad. The dense forest around the Dam and lake offer the views of some rare wild animals and also views of variety of trees including Teak, sag, mango trees and oak. The forest cover and the lake are habitats of bird flora and many varieties colored birds can be spotted here. I am pretty sure that Munshi Lake and dam are really charming for a nature loving visitor.
