The Paithalmala Trek is a serene escapade into the heart of Kerala’s natural beauty, nestled in the district of Kannur. Unravel the expanse of the Western Ghats as you embark on this mesmerizing journey towards the hilltop, located at a height of 1372m above sea level. The trail, approximately 6 km long, takes you through a diverse terrain that encompasses evergreen shola forests, grasslands, and mesmerizing streams.
Whether you’re an experienced trekker or a newbie adventurer, Paithalmala trek offers an experience that caters to all. The trek begins from the base of the hill and gradually inclines towards the peak. While the initial part of the trail is a mild walk, the later sections involve a moderately challenging hike.
