Nelliampathi    
                                        

                 Nelliampathi is a famous hill station in Kerala. It is situated 60 km away from Palakkad district. The whole hill is surrounded by greeny trees , tea and coffee estates and has excellent weather. The journey to this spot makes a enthusiastic and thrilling experience. The only route is towards Nemmara, from where the first town of Nelliampathi, namely Kaikatty junction, is at a distance of 26 km. At the 9th kilometer we can visit the Pothundi dam , which is a small irrigation dam provides water for rice fields in the areas surrounded. The dam is at the foot hills of  Nelliampathi . From here, the road tends up for 17 km with many hairpin bends through the way. Immediately after Pothundy dam forest area will starts where one can see massive teak trees. The road is very narrow and much danger and requires a skilled driver. On the way we can see many wild animals. The view of the Pothundy dam from the height is a breathtaking sight. There will be many waterfalls by the roadside during the rainy season. There are lot of flora and fauna found in this area. Full forest area is under the control of Kerala government. Some private properties are also situated in this spot. Have a thrilling to NELLIAMPATHI ............
