Nestled amidst nature's enchanting embrace, Kodikuthi Mala offers an unparalleled vantage point that effortlessly transports you to a world of breathtaking beauty. As I stood atop this magnificent hill, I was treated to an awe-inspiring panorama that left me utterly spellbound. The fantastic view from Kodikuthi Mala is truly a sight to behold, and it is during the summer season that its allure reaches new heights.

With every step I took towards the edge of the hill, my anticipation grew, and my heart raced with excitement. And then, as I arrived at the perfect viewpoint, time seemed to stand still. Before me stretched the pristine expanse of Ponnani Beach, bathed in a golden glow that only the summer sun could create. The tranquil waters of the Arabian Sea shimmered and danced, reflecting the azure sky above, creating a harmonious symphony of colors.

From this elevated vantage point, the grandeur of nature unfolds in all its glory. The rhythmic waves caressing the shore, the gentle sea breeze carrying whispers of distant lands, and the symphony of seagulls gliding through the air—it all blends together to create an immersive experience that soothes the soul and ignites the imagination.

The beauty of Kodikuthi Mala lies not only in its breathtaking vista but also in the sense of serenity it evokes. As I stood there, gazing at the endless horizon, I felt a profound connection with nature and an overwhelming sense of gratitude for being able to witness such magnificence.

Beyond the visual feast, Kodikuthi Mala offers a haven for introspection and rejuvenation. The tranquil ambiance and untouched surroundings provide an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the beauty of the moment and find solace in the simplicity of nature.

Whether you are a nature enthusiast, a photographer seeking the perfect shot, or simply someone in search of tranquility, Kodikuthi Mala promises an unforgettable experience. The fantastic view it offers of the Ponnani Beach area during the summer season is nothing short of a masterpiece painted by Mother Nature herself.

In conclusion, Kodikuthi Mala is a hidden gem that beckons those with a yearning for natural beauty. Its commanding views and serene ambiance will leave you breathless and inspire a profound appreciation for the wonders of our world. So, come and lose yourself in the magic of Kodikuthi Mala, where a fantastic view of Ponnani Beach awaits to mesmerize and captivate your senses....

Kodikuthimala Watch Tower ... One of the coolest hill station in Malappuram district surrounded by streams, grasslands and forest, with an incredible sunset view. Kodikuthimala also known as the Ooty of Malappuram  is a hill station in the Malappuram district of Kerala in India. Located in Vettathur and Thazhekode villages, at a height of 540 m above sea level, this is the highest geographic peak in Amminikkadan hills. Apart from the Western Ghats, Kerala has five major independent mountains ( free-standing mountain ). Of these, three are in Malappuram district, one in Palakkad and one in Kannur. Although distant from the Western Ghats, these five mountains and the Western Ghats formed at the same time. Therefore, geographically, these five mountains belong to the Western Ghats branch. The largest of these five mountains is the Cheriyam mountain at Mankada in Malappuram district. This Cheriyam mountain is also known as Panthalur Hill. Cheriyam mountain is located at an elevation of 613 m (2,011 ft) above sea level. Mount Amminikkadan is the second highest mountain of this five mountains.

The height of this Arimbra mountain is 475 meters. The British hoisted their flag on this hilltop during a survey, thus getting the name Kodikuthimala. Around 70 acres of land in this area is earmarked by the Tourism Department for various projects. Kodikuthimala, at an altitude of 1,713-ft above sea level, has a watch tower that is visited by tourists because of the vantage point it offers. It is located 9 km from Perintalmanna, 32 km from Malappuram, 66 km from Palakkad and 82 km...

Kodikuthimala hill top is promising mansoon destination in malappuram District of kerala.. Kodikuthimala hill 7 km far from perinthalmanna town.. Best place to visit in mansoon season for those who are ready to climb hill for 2 km from where u can park your vehicle.. There is an offroad to the top, but normally not preferred by tourists. Riders coming from (calicut side take straight)( nilambur side take left) (pattambi side take right) on palakkad road for 5-6 to reach amminikkad where you take left to Kodikuthimala road. Riding 3 kms on same with beautiful views aside will be a a different experience to the first time visitors. there is no parking lot structure for vehicle so keep your machines aside of roads. Buy drinks and snaks from the shops nearby, you will not get it on the top of hill. Be aware not to throw plastic materials and bottles throughout.

Kodikuthimala welcomes you with a small stream with pure water from the hills, walk through the stone pawed road to the top. Climbing through the rocks will be good if you are comfortable with. A police check post is there at the top, they are helpfull for the travellers and also taking care of the places. So please be co-operative with their guidance. A small building built on the top as a view point which you can see whole place from the top. While coming back walk down through other side(west side) which you can down through rocks and reach down through the stream.

Nestled approximately 7 km from Perinthalmanna town in Amminikkad, Kodikuthimala stands as a prominent eco-tourism destination in the Malappuram District. A short 4 km detour from the Kozhikkode - Palakkad highway leads to this ecologically significant site, maintained by the Forest Department. Entry requires a ticket priced at ₹40 per person, available at the counter. To preserve its natural integrity, plastic and fire items are strictly prohibited within the center. The highlight of Kodikuthimala is a challenging 2 km uphill trek to a watchtower. This arduous climb is not recommended for individuals with medical conditions or elderly visitors. However, the scenic walkway, winding through natural vegetation, offers a pleasant experience, especially when shared with family and friends. Water is available near the amenity center close to the watchtower. Be prepared for the final 500 meters, a steep and straight ascent that can feel particularly demanding after the preceding walk. The panoramic view from the watchtower offers a tranquil reward, with gentle breezes rustling through the mountain meadows and a beautiful evening sky often gracing the horizon. To avoid the discomfort of intense heat, it's best to plan your visit outside the 10 am to 3 pm window during the summer months. The eco-tourism center operates from 8 am to 5 pm and remains closed on Mondays. Bathroom facilities are located only at the entrance. Additionally, a Vanashree outlet at the beginning offers honey and other forest products.
