Travellers can now have a waterway trip through Thattekkad sanctuary
The popular Jungle Safari trip that the KSRTC’s Kothamangalam depot began three months ago has been given a value addition in the form of a boat trip through the Bhootathankettu dam and a visit to Aanakkulam.
Travellers will thus be able to savour the waterway trip as well through the Thattekkad Wildlife Sanctuary and disembark at Kuttampuzha. From there, they continue the bus journey. Put short, the trip will be akin to the one at Thekkady.
The inclusion of the boat trip in the tour was inaugurated on Saturday by Antony John, Kothamangalam MLA. The Jungle Safari was launched on November 25. From one daily trip, the number of buses increased to seven each day, catering to the increase in demand from travellers.

It was from this fertile training ground that the artiste—who concealed layers of social thought beneath humour—paved his way into cinema. Thrikkarippur played a decisive role in this formative phase. A committed theatre activist, Sreenivasan formed the drama troupe Ghanashyama and made Thrikkarippur its base of operations.
