Chekkunnu Mala

Chekkunnu Mala is a hill and nature destination in Urangattiri village of Ernad taluk, Malappuram district, Keralam. Keralam Revenue Department information for Urangattiri identifies the Chekkunnu hill range as an important feature of the village and refers to waterfall scenery at its foothills. This confirms the attraction’s location in Urangattiri rather than farther east in Chaliyar.

The area is characterised by green slopes, rural roads and a landscape that becomes especially lush during the monsoon. Visitors interested in short hikes, photography and countryside viewpoints can explore the accessible parts of the hill region, but formal tourism facilities may be limited. Some land may be forested, agricultural, privately owned or otherwise restricted, so local access conditions should always be respected.

Wet paths, loose rock and mist can make hill travel difficult during heavy rain. Urangattiri’s official postal area uses PIN 673639.
