About Thekkady, Your Drop Point
Thekkady forms the main entry point to the Periyar Tiger Reserve, a protected forest built around the reservoir of Periyar Lake, formed by the Mullaperiyar Dam on the Periyar river, and is a hill town in Idukki district, Kerala, around 115 km west of Madurai and roughly 190 km east of Kochi, set in the Cardamom Hills of the Western Ghats. Boat safaris on the lake are the area's signature attraction, offering close-range sightings of elephants, bison, and waterbirds along the forest-fringed shoreline. The surrounding hills support extensive spice cultivation, with cardamom, pepper, and cinnamon plantations that visitors can tour, alongside cardamom auction trade that has long shaped the local economy. Thekkady's elevation and forest cover also make it a base for trekking and nature-tourism trips into the wider Idukki highlands.
