Part of the Western Ghats, these hills are rich in flora and fauna.
Tourists coming up the pass are greeted by the nearby Thusharagiri waterfalls. It is one of the best tourist places in Kozhikkode. #Thusharagiri Waterfalls can be reached by travelling 5 km to the right from the Chippilithode Junction in the Pass. Thusharagiri waterfalls ls is located in Kodancherry Panchayath in Kozhikode district. Thusharagiri literally means 'snow-capped mountains'. The two streams that originate from the Western Ghats converge here and forms 3 waterfalls, Erattumukku, Mazhavil Chattam and Thumpithullum Chattam.
Thusharagiri waterfalls is also a popular destination for trekkers. You can reach the source of this spring by trekking 5 KM through the forest. If you are lucky, you can see elephants and other wildlife from this trekking route. That is why many nature lovers and bird watchers come here. There is also a trekking route from Thusharagiri to Vaithiri in Wayanad. The trekking route passes through an evergreen forest full of wildlife.
Another attraction of Thusharagiri is the Arch Bridge across the river. It is also the tallest arch bridge in Kerala. The Malabar River Festival is held here every July. Many competitions like kayaking and river rafting are held here as part of the festival. The festival is organized by the Kerala Adventure Tourism Promotion Society (KATPS) and the Kozhikode District Tourism Promotion Council (DTPC). People from more than 15 countries compete in kayaking here. The Malabar River Festival has been selected as one of the top 5 white-water kayak festivals in the world.
