Kallikkad Chaliyar Riverside

Kallikkad Chaliyar Riverside is a local nature and picnic destination on the banks of the Chaliyar River in Malappuram district, Keralam. The District Administration identifies Kallikkad as being in Vazhakkad Village Panchayat within Kondotty Block, around 15 km from Kondotty and about 2 km from Edavannappara. The main appeal is the river itself: broad water views, green banks and the relaxed atmosphere of the Chaliyar valley.

It is a useful stop for travellers interested in Malappuram’s river landscapes rather than formal amusement or resort facilities. Photography, short family outings and quiet observation of the river are the most natural activities here. Conditions along the bank vary seasonally, especially during the southwest monsoon when the Chaliyar can rise rapidly.

Visitors should keep away from fast-flowing water and unstable edges, and should avoid leaving plastic or other waste at this lightly developed riverside location.
