KOCHI:
Tiny droplets hanging on the leaves, an earthy fragrance in the air, the thundering clouds and the brimming waterfalls – beating the summer heat, the monsoon season brings us closer to nature in exceptional ways.
Come, monsoon season and nature lovers embark on their hunt to find the next best destination to enjoy the rains. Athirapilly waterfalls, just an hour’s drive (55Kms) from Kochi International Airport, is one such hot spot frequented by travelers during monsoons. Equidistant from Kochi and Thrissur, the Athirapilly falls are also popularly known as India’s Niagara. The waterfalls are a treat to watch with the beautiful cascade of white waters coming from the Anamudi mountains of the Western Ghats.

Situated in the lap of nature, offering a breath-taking view of the Athirapilly waterfalls, it is also an ideal location for corporate trainings and meetings, providing a unique and memorable experience to all participants.

With an aim to promote eco-tourism in Kerala, we at Samroha Resort want people to experience serenity when they step into the resort, away from their hectic lives. I personally like to take such breaks from my busy schedule every once in a while, and go for short trips to such locations”, says Abhinand Basant, Executive Director, Samroha Resort.
The resort is one of the most sought-after hospitality destinations owing to its location.
