Mavilikkadavu and Thanneer Panthal

Mavailikkadavu School

Mavilikkadavu village is a photographer’s dream as there are many water bodies around.  Mavilikkadavu village can be accessed from Wayanad road in Kozhikode city.  Start from Malapparamba junction and proceed to Karikkamkulam side.  After Karaparamba, turn right and take the Krishnan Nair road.  You can move by a canal and reach Mavilikkadavu highway junction.  On the left there is the Kunduparamba All India Radio road and the road to the right takes you Malikkadavu town.  Moorikkara and Kakkodi road are on the right side.  The Thanneer Panthal village can also be accessed from here.  

Karikkamkulam route starts from Karaparamba and proceeds on Krishnan Nair road.  Kunduparamba, Eranhikkal and Kottapadam are little towns on the way.  Veda Vyasa School and Providence Women’s College are in this area.  There is one Mandady temple and Ahamedhiya mosque here.  Ponmana Ayyappan Temple, Mavilikkadavu river and the Bhagavathy temple on the highway attract many visitors.  Sri Palazhy Thazham Bhagavathy Temple and Kakkauzhi Palam also give photo options.  There is a forest shrine called Poovattu Naga Kali Temple here and another one called Edakkad Ganapathy Temple. Nearer to Puthiyangadi junction, you can also find one Hanuman temple.
