Viewpoint overlooking a valley below. Spent about two hours here just watching the clouds moving, the color changing as sunlight comes and goes, playing some music in the small speaker.
The place also has a tree house and and a small farm selling wild honey, lemon grass oil and amala but you have to pay an entry fee of some 20 INR. Kanthaloor waterfalls can be seen from here at a distance.
