Kakkadampoyil

Misty Hills on the Border

Kakkadampoyil is a serene hill destination in the Western Ghats on the Kozhikode–Malappuram border. Misty mountains, cool breezes, dense forests and rolling green valleys make it a refreshing escape from the city, especially loved by nature seekers and photographers.

What to Expect

The hill viewpoints (like the Nayadampoyil viewpoint) are stunning at sunrise and sunset. Nearby attractions include Kozhippara Waterfalls — the area's most famous cascade — and the Pathankayam waterfall/dam area. Local eateries serve authentic Kerala food.

Good to Know

About 50 km from Kozhikode. The approach roads can be rough in stretches, and monsoon/post-monsoon is the most scenic (if slippery) time. Early morning is best for the misty views.
