The Gateway to Wayanad Atop the Thamarassery Ghat Pass
Positioned at the crest of the Thamarassery Churam ghat pass near Vythiri, Lakkidi Viewpoint offers sweeping bird’s-eye views of the nine hairpin bends winding down toward the Kozhikode plains.
Standing at the parapet overlooking the drop, travellers watch vehicles negotiate the hairpin curves below while sheets of cloud drift up from the plains. The air is noticeably cooler and crisper than the lowlands.
