• Oonnukal-Thodupuzha Road - On the way to Munnar, after 2 hours from Kochi, you’ll reach a place called Oonnukal. We’ve arranged a vegetarian breakfast for you at a restaurant there, which also offers refreshment facilities. After breakfast, you’ll depart for Munnar. On the way, you’ll visit Cheeyappara Waterfalls.
• Cheeyappara Waterfalls - Located on the Kochi – Munnar highway on the left side of the road, this spot is great for photos, but bathing is prohibited due to slippery and dangerous rocks. There are no entry or parking fees. A few small shops sell local food items. A 15-20 minute stop is recommended.
• Kundala Dam Lake - Constructed in 1946 for the Pallivasal Hydro Electric Project, Kundala Dam is considered Asia’s No. 1 arch dam. Situated between Top Station and Munnar town, it’s easily accessible and a top spot for photography. Activities like pedal boating, speed boating, and shikara rides are available.

Kundala Dam Travel Tips

• Kannan Devan Hills - On the way to Top Station or returning to the city, you’ll see scenic tea plantations. You can stop for photos without any entry fees. Munnar is filled with tea plantations, so you can get great photos anywhere.
• Mattupetty Dam - Located 13 km from Munnar city towards Top Station, a 20-minute drive. Mattupetty offers a blend of mountains, lake, and greenery, perfect for photos and memorable moments. Unlike Kundala, Mattupetty has extensive tourist facilities including washrooms, a tourist center with a coffee shop, snack bar, cowboy park, children’s park, and speed boating. For the best experience, visit the boating center first, then head to the dam for photos.
