Cities & Towns Kerala Kottayam Destination Getaways Ilaveezhapoonchira
Ilaveezhapoonchira, spread across thousand acres of land, is an ideal picnic spot located at the foot of the hillocks of Mankunnu, Kudayathur Hill and Thonippara near Kanjar, around 55kms from Kottayam. These surrounding hillocks, each rising to about 3200 ft, make it a perfect place for trekking. Ilaveezhapoonchira means valley where leaves don't fall and is named so because the place has no trees. This is also one of the best places in Kerala to enjoy both the sunrise and sunset. Some of the tourist destinations here are Malankara dam, Kannadipara and Kazhukankulimali Waterfalls. There is a cave here named Pandavart Guha which is believed to be occupied by Pandavas during their exile. Ilaveezhapoonchira is easily accessible from Pala. During monsoon, the valley laps up water and forms a scenic lake, unveiling another beautiful slice of nature.
