A beauty of a place in Ernakulam. The place is recommended for January to May, when the water level is lower and you can enter the river. It is a quite refreshing and relaxing experience, to take a dip in the cool river on a hot summer evening. There is a stone paved walkway inside the forest which leads to the river side. On the way there are a few swings, and benches to take a quick rest. There is also a small tree house. Further inside, you can go towards the edge of the river, where you can enter the cool stream, small foot bridges are also made for crossing the wide areas and there is a great view from above the rocks. There are guides at regular intervals, who are very helpful and friendly. Follow them to enter the river at the best parts and enjoy your day. It is really appreciated that the place is beautifully maintained. So please make sure not to litter and damage this beautiful ecosystem. One limitation is that there is no changing room facilities near the river, so the best option is to change clothes at the washroom area near the entrance before going towards the river. The washroom facility is also limited. The road to the place is currently having some broken areas, but still it is quite easily commutable for most vehicles. Apart from such small points, this is definitely a great experience and a perfect location for a summer picnic.

A great place to enjoy some time with family and friends, make sure that you chose a good route to reach the destination because in google map it will show different routes and not all roads are perfect. When talking about the location even of you reach in the afternoon you won’t feel hot. The place is covered with trees and i think we need to walk around one kilometre to reach the major destination where we can take bath safely, even though the guards are there to monitor we need to take care of our safety.we may feel the place is safe but still we need to beware of the safety of our beloved ones especially be careful when you arw planning to enter the water with kids. Overall the place is very nice and peaceful if u visit during weekdays weekends might be rush. Entrance time 7 am and allowed till 4pm. Please make sure that you carry enouy money with you since they won’t accept online payments. Plastic water bottles are not allowed we need to carry the steel bottles. And if you wish to enter the water please nake sure you bring additional dress and for ladies the changing rooms are available. Entrance fee : 50 rs for adults Children below 5 years not required a fee Car parking 30 rs

Paniyeli Poru is a lovely picnic spot located at Paniyeli, near Perumbavoor. It forms part of Periyar river. The spot is part of Malayatoor forest range and is surrounded by rich greenery. Paniyeli Poru is basically a river bank full of rocks and stones of different shapes formed by decades of swirling flow of Periyar river. Its about 40 kms from Ernakulam and is well maintained with plenty of seats on the banks of the river to rest and enjoy the serenity. There are plenty of forest rangers around to guide us and ensure that we are not deviating from the approved path. The rocks are slippery and we should be careful while walking. Food is not allowed. There is ample parking space at the entrance of the eco friendly park and has a nominal entry fees. Cameras are also charged. The best time to visit the spot is between November and May when the water flow is less. For those who love adventure, This place offer lot of opportunities to experience thrill and adventure. The panoramic view around offer beautiful frames to photographers.

Positive: The environment is exceptionally beautiful, clean, and serene, offering a tranquil escape for those seeking a peaceful retreat. The natural surroundings enhance the overall experience, especially when the area is less crowded, providing a refreshing and immersive experience in nature. Negative: However, the facilities available are lacking, considering the location's popularity and the serene setting. There is limited space for visitors to sit or rest after entering, and the amenities fall short of expectations. Additionally, visiting during the heavy rainy season is highly discouraged due to the risk associated with navigating the rapids. There is also a potential hazard from elephants crossing the river, which could pose a safety threat to visitors.

Eco friendly, plastic is banned around the place and the staffs are really implementing it too. Tou can have mineral water from the registration section they will put a sticker on it; once u teturn the empty bottle with the stocker they will return half amount you paid for water. When talking about the location even of you reach in the afternoon you won’t feel hot. The place is covered with trees and i think we need to walk around one kilometre to reach the major destination where we can take bath safely, even though the guards are there to monitor we need to take care of our safety.we may feel the place is safe but still we need to beware of the safety of our beloved ones especially be careful when you arw planning to enter the water with kids.

Family friendly place to visit. It's not expensive and you have rooms to change dress, toilet for men and women. On the pathway there are things to enjoy (swing on a wooden plank tied to ropes (ഊഞ്ഞാൽ), sitting view at height, swing on top of the ropes of the tree). Above everything the view of the water flowing is really beautiful and you can actually dip yourself in the river water, talking to your friends/ family in water. Water is not deep, you can't swim. Safety is assured by authority assigned to look after people going through the route and they do an excellent job at it. The best time to visit here is during the morning since water is cold like the way you want it and the rocks become more hot during noon.
