Why this place stands out
Moozhiyar Dam in Seethathodu, Pathanamthitta, is a forested hydroelectric reservoir associated with the Kakkad project and the wider Sabarigiri water system.
Moozhiyar Dam is located in the Seethathodu highland region of Pathanamthitta district, where hydroelectric infrastructure is woven into a heavily forested Western Ghats landscape. DTPC Pathanamthitta describes Moozhiyar in connection with the Kakkad Hydroelectric Project and the broader network of waters associated with Sabarigiri. Keralam State Electricity Board dam-safety information also places the project in Seethathodu.
The setting is scenic and comparatively remote, with reservoir views, steep green slopes and a strong sense of the district’s eastern forest belt. It is best viewed as an engineering-and-nature destination rather than a conventional recreation park. Access can be affected by security rules, forest controls, weather and project operations, and some areas may not be open to casual visitors.
Anyone planning a trip should verify the current route and permissions through official sources and respect all barriers and safety instructions around dam infrastructure.
