Beauty of Thekkady: Ottakathalamedu

By

Ottakathalamedu

Thekkady resorts

Ottakathalamedu has started becoming popular among tourists very recently. Located at a distance of 4 km from Thekaddy, it is a beautiful bike ride from Thekaddy to here. Situated at an altitude of 1300 m above sea level, it offers a breathtaking view of Kumily, Periyar Tiger Reserve, spice gardens and some villages of Tamil Nadu. Be careful while standing at edges because winds can be very strong sometimes. If you love to do some landscape photography, don’t forget to pack your wide angle lens. It’s a perfect place to chill out with your group while watching the sunset. There are no cafes/restaurants around and hence if you plan to hang out there for a while, carry your snacks. Since it is a newly discovered tourist spot, it is not maintained very well, and you should bring your food and plastic waste back with you.

Ottakathalamedu has situated about 4 km from Thekkady at an altitude of 1300 meters above sea level, which provides an excellent view that includes Kumily town, the Periyar National Park and even the neighbouring state of Tamil Nadu State.

Tea, Coffee, Spice plantations and Factory visits: Great experiences from the best resort in Thekkady

By
The undulating mountains of Thekkady, in Kumily district, are home to a number of tea and coffee plantations, including that of the major players in the field. As you go up the hills that are green as far as the eye can see, the air becomes cooler and fresher.       Kumily is a great place for a first-hand experience of the production of tea and coffee. You can watch every part of the process including cultivation, plucking and the processing in factories.

The scent may be of cloves, nutmeg, pepper, cinnamon or cardamom and sometimes a fragrance that combines the scents of two or more spices. The geographical and climatic peculiarities ...
