Vagamon

An arcadian hill station located on the Kottayam-Idukki border of Kerala

Vagamon with its misty mountains, lush meadows and rambling rivulets is the perfect getaway for anyone looking for a pocket of calmness in the chaos of daily life. Situated 1200 meters above sea level, Vagamon has a pleasant climate all throughout the year. Vagamon beckons you with its beauty right from the start of the journey. Quaint little towns with their sporadic shops, unhurried people going about their daily lives and the scenic winding roads are all pointers to the tranquil haven that awaits you at the end of the journey.

Dotted with tea gardens and meadows, Vagamon is truly a nature lover's paradise. Spread over 100 acres, the picturesque pine forest welcomes you with its towering conifers and walking trails. A collection of lush green meadows locally known as 'Mottakunnu' (barren hills) and the tranquil Vagamon Lake are perfect backdrops for those gorgeous travel pictures. Located 10 kilometres from Vagamon, the Ulipooni Wildlife Sanctuary is home to tigers, elephants and a variety of flora and fauna. 

Whether you are a weekend visitor seeking a change of pace or an artist chasing inspiration, you won't be disappointed. Take a walk through the many winding roads, explore the streams that are born during the monsoons, enjoy a fresh cup of tea looking at the rolling plantations, pick wildflowers from the lush meadows or have a picnic in the pine forest. Whatever you do, the memories that you make here will last for a lifetime.
