About Kammadam Kavu

Kammadam Kavu lies in Bheemanady village of Vellarikundu taluk in eastern Kasaragod. The Keralam Revenue Department describes the sacred grove as covering about 54.7 acres of forest, surrounded by cultivated landscapes of paddy, arecanut, rubber and banana. The grove is closely linked with Kammadam Bhagavathi Temple and local religious belief, which has helped protect the forest from disturbance over generations.

A perennial stream flows through the thick evergreen vegetation, and official tourism material highlights Kammadam as one of Keralam’s significant kavus, or sacred groves. For visitors, the value of the place lies in seeing how faith, community practice and biodiversity can coexist within a living landscape. It should be approached as a sensitive sacred environment rather than an adventure park.

Visitors should avoid littering, disturbing plants or wildlife, and should respect local customs and restrictions around the temple and grove.
