The gladdest moment in human life is a departure into unknown lands – Bruton
Presently am I going to share my experience had in Upper Kodayar (the lost paradise), Situated at an Elevation of 1500m. Upper Kodayar is an enchanting spot a long way from civilization. The spot is situated in the southern most Western ghats close to the Tamil Nadu – Kerala fringe. These reaches are known as the Pothigai slopes and are a piece of the Kalakad – Mundanthurai natural life hold.
The course from Tirunelveli, the region home office goes along the Thamirabharani waterway starting in these mountains and is beautiful. We take a left before Kallidaikurichi, and go by Singampatti Zamin. The slopes loom over us on one side.
The primary stop is at Manimuthar Dam. There is a Forest dept check post at the dam where we demonstrate our authorization letter to enter the haven, after a couple of km of riding in the woods we run over the Manimuthar Falls. A little one contrasted with the falls in Papanasam and Kuttralam.
No visitor was not permitted on the grounds that the road maintains going on. We had an appropriate consent from the forest office. The road proceeding from the falls has a place with the Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation, the organization that has taken an arrive at rent and runs the tea estates.
It is thick woodland with no daylight coming to through. We first stop at the Vanapechiamman temple worship. The temperature drops as we continue further. The lavish tea gardens with blossoming trees in the middle of make an incredible sight in the new fresh air of the mountains.
Feel The Nature at Upper Kodayar HillsđŸ‘‡
A sudden clearing in the middle of the forest welcomes us, and we have touched base at the Manjolai fairway. One of the most astounding and most special courses. Be careful with Leech when you entered into the grass. The golf course at one time a retreat for the British tip top of Tirunelveli region who took it from the Singampatti Zamin.
The road proceeds however woods and ranches till we arrive at the primary intersection, appropriately called Nalumukku Estate (four corners). Around by 11 am. We are bitten hunger, so we had our little break quick in MM hotel, as we generally visit when had opportunity to visit Nalumukku Estate.
đŸ‘‰Now We Arrange Special Manjolai Tour Package with Stay!
What’s more, we request our lunch too. We at that point continued our adventure to Upper Kodayar, as I affectionately call the spot. The fog begins to set in as the evening emerges, and we are welcomed by nippy air on the course from Nalmukku to Upper Kodayar. We move up to the Dam and take some photographs. The two dams are interconnected and the spillway prompts the Manimuthar falls.
The water from the littler dam is siphoned to the greater dam and after that it is taken by means of a passage to the opposite side of the mountains and dropped 1000m down at a slope of 60-80 degrees to the Kodayar1 powerhouse to create 60MW of power.
There is no straight street from the powerhouse to the dam. The specialists must come through, Aralvaimozhi, Nanguneriand Kallakad, a separation of 181 KMS. So the administration likewise manufactured a winch track associating the two spots with 4 phases and an absolute separation 5 KMS.
We cross the peak and descend along a vertical cliff face to reach the station cum valve. The spot is surrendered and shut. The mists are conveyed up from the Kanyakumari fields underneath. On sunny mornings it is said you can see till the Indian Ocean and Neyardam in Kerala. At long last we arrive at the spot called wall House what a miracle full spot it was I cannot believe my eyes such a stunning spot.
Just in dream am I playing and contacted the clouds yet here you don’t believe it I contacted the mists with fogs. The winch track has a way close by which the individuals from underneath come up to work the winch. The bewildering stature itself is a factor, yet climbing 1000m rising is certain not for the timid. Consequently, tragically I couldn’t ride the winch this time as the administrator needed to ascend from beneath.
We got numerous bite by leech yet while seeing this scenery place it disputes matter to us, over 2 hours we spend in that spot and returned. We saw numerous elephant’s impressions and branches were broken and I hear the sound of elephant which originated from far that sound give as a terrible feeling.
Whiling coming there was one little dam from the dam the spot is look like Amazon never felt like am in India. This view makes our excursion worth Am a nature sweetheart so by little possessiveness am I sharing this Forest office ensuring place if numerous guests landing to this spot they could make harm this ecosystem.
So it’s better to be held. In any case, on the off chance that you got an opportunity to go there is guaranteed that you will appreciate the numerous scenery perspectives and kindly don’t throw plastic bag or packs in the wilderness.
