New Amarambalam Wildlife Sanctuary

Good place to visit with family and friends. Nice view of forest. Mostly you can see elephants and deers. If you have luck you can see some more. Nice river is flowing nearby. You can have bath from there even if you don't know swimming. Cool and pure water. But issue is it will be closed in every summer season for protecting the forest from forest fire
