MeenVallam waterfalls


Meenvallam is a very beautiful natural place, located in Palakkad district of Kerala. Nearest bus stop is 'Kalladikode' (tb) . Kalladicode is about 15km away from palakkad town on the way to Mannarkkad.  Meenvallam is about 6 km away from 'Kalladicode'. Anyone can get Mannarkkad/kozhikode bus from palakkad and get down at kalladicode(tb) bus stop. Buses are very rare from Kalladicode to Meenvallam. So we may need to go by Jeep or taxi from  Kalladi code bus stop. More than 7 water falls are there in Meenvallam, but unfortunately we could visit only one because of repair work ongoing. We walked about 1 or2 km after taken the entry ticket from Meenvallam starting point.  There is a clear route upto the first waterfall. It heard that routes are not good after first waterfall.

The best time to visit Meenvallam is just after rainy season. The entry will not allow after 4'O clock.

We returned to Kalladicode at 5'O clock after have a strong tea from Meenvallam. We walked about 6km to reach Kalladicode bus stop. Return journey was a some nice experience of walking through cool natural place.
