Kalikesam - 1
Name: Kalikesam (Keeriparai Forest Range in Kanyakumari District)
Location: 15 km north of Nagercoil and 35 km north of Kanyakumari.
Route: Nagercoil -----> Puthery -----> Thittuvilai ----->
Alagiyapandiapuram -----> Thadikarankonam ----->
Keeriparai ------> Kalikesam
After crossing a bridge in keeriparai, we will find ourselves at the 'V' junction of two roads
While the left leads to Kalikesam , the right leads to Vattaparai and
Balamore Estate.
Take the left one and travel (about 2 Km) till the end of the road.
Kalikesam Welcomes us.
A Kali temple situated by the side of the stream attracts devotees
on Tuesdays and Fridays. During the Tamil month of Adi women come
to the temple on Tuesdays and Fridays and prepare Kozhukkattai
(a round shaped cake of rice flour) as an offering to the Kali.
A few yards against the downstream will lead us to an ideal place for bathing.

Vattaparai Waterfalls - 2
We have to take right one and travel for half km. A beautiful
jungle stream which was visible from the 'V' junction is invisible now
because of a bamboo thicket that arched all along on the
right side of the road.
As we climb down on the narrow passage, we will encounter with the stream.
A few yards against the downstream will lead us to the waterfalls.
The sparkling white water glistened with froth as it hit the pebbled
As the sudden downpour in the upper forests in the Western ghats
A kind request: Please avoid using plastic bags in the forest area.

My Friends Gandhinathan & Mahesh enjoying the natural shower
The sparkling white water glistened with froth as it hit the pebbled
bedbefore meandering off into the rainforest
As the sudden downpour in the upper forests in the Western ghats
will result in sudden floods, So be alert.
Our ancestors are on patrol. So place your belongings safely.
Vattaparai - Nature in its pristine beauty. Available for Refreshment
A kind request: Please avoid using plastic bags in the forest area.
Littering of waste material is spoiling the beauty of this area.
