SILENT VALLEY

Silent Valley National Park is renowned for its unique rainforest. The Silent Valley National Park is the sole cause of rainfall in Kerala, during the summer season. The area of the National Park is 90 sq km, and is located at the North Eastern area of the Palakkad district.

In the Silent Valley you would notice a wide range of peninsular mammals, 100 different species of butterflies, and also multiple varieties of rare birds. Often during the winters, Migratory birds come here. They are the most unique specimens and attract our attention.
Since the River Kunthi descends from the Nilgiri Hills and flows through this region, one can barely ignore its presence. The river rises from a height of about 2,000 meters above the sea level.
