Kakki Dam is a scenic dam nestled in the forested highlands of the Kerala, located in the Pathanamthitta district. Built across the Kakki River, it forms a crucial part of the Sabarigiri Hydroelectric Project.
Surrounded by dense evergreen forests and mist-covered hills of the Western Ghats, the dam offers a peaceful and refreshing atmosphere. The vast Kakki Reservoir created by the dam presents a breathtaking view where calm blue waters blend beautifully with lush greenery.
The area lies close to the Periyar Tiger Reserve region, making it rich in biodiversity and natural charm. Unlike many crowded tourist destinations, Kakki Dam remains relatively untouched, offering tranquility and scenic beauty. The drive through forest roads, cool climate, and panoramic views make it a hidden gem in Kerala’s high ranges — perfect for nature lovers and serenity seekers.
