Ramakkalmedu
Earning its poetic moniker "Land of the Wind," Ramakkalmedu's allure lies in its undulating hills and sweeping vistas that unveil the neighboring villages of Tamil Nadu. Winds that gust at 25 km/h here might even sweep you off your feet, quite literally. Ingeniously harnessing this wind's power, a 12.5 MW wind energy farm stands as a testament to the resourcefulness of the region. Perched at an impressive elevation of 3500 feet above sea level, Ramakkalmedu gifts visitors with awe-inspiring views of not just one, but seven small townships, along with the picturesque expanses of the neighboring Tamil Nadu. A highlight of the area is the iconic "Kuravan" and "Kurathi" statues, towering as the highest twin statues in Kerala. As the sun sets, the village lights below come alive, casting a mesmerizing glow over the villages of Theni, Thevaram, Cumbum, Vaiga, and more. The charm of Ramakkalmedu extends to its lush bamboo forests, offering a haven of delight for travelers. The journey to this haven unfolds amidst vast rubber, tea, coffee, and cardamom plantations, ensuring that your eyes remain captivated by the unfolding natural spectacle.
Ramakkalmedu is more than a destination; it's a symphony of wind, hills, and breathtaking panoramas that beckon you to immerse yourself in its beauty.
