Why this place stands out

Malom Hills is a Western Ghats eco-tourism area in Kasaragod, Keralam, known for trekking, waterfalls, green mountain scenery and the rare Mukri Pokar Theyyam tradition.

Malom is a small highland settlement in eastern Kasaragod near the Western Ghats and the Karnataka border. Keralam Tourism promotes the area as an emerging eco-tourism destination and notes its popular description as the “Coorg of Keralam,” reflecting its green hills and cooler mountain character. The surrounding landscape offers possibilities for trekking, mountain biking, village trails and visits to natural attractions such as Thenvarikallu Waterfalls, Thooganpara and evergreen hill areas.

Malom is culturally distinctive as well: tourism material highlights Mukri Pokar, a rare Muslim Theyyam tradition associated with Malomkuloth. Nearby discoveries of old inscriptions at Marutham Thattu add another layer of historical interest. The destination is best suited to visitors who enjoy rural highlands rather than highly developed hill stations.

Weather, trail access and waterfall conditions vary seasonally, so local guidance is useful, especially during the monsoon.
