The Athirapalli Malakkapara Valpara forest route is one of the most popular tourist spots preferred by the youth and families alike. Although it’s just a small hillside road that passes through the forest, the scenic beauty of nature on both sides is fascinating. Unfortunately, people miss out a very beautiful place in between – the Peringalkuth dam. When you travel 10km in Athirapalli, you will find a junction. Turn left and ride for another 3km to reach the Peringalkuth dam. The lush green grassland and the sprawling river with its amazing water make this place picturesque. The visitors can also avail boat service which is provided here.
