#Ponmudi kashmir of Kerala (Trivandrum)- Budget Picnic Spot Elevation is 1,100 m (3,600 ft) Ponmudi is a hill station 55 km away from Trivandrum railway station and 58 km away from Trivandrum international airport. There are 22 hairpins on this road and the drive through the forest is a good experience. We can spot a lot of small waterfalls in the forest near the road and we can taste Kerala traditional chai tea in the roadside tea shop which is available in Ponmudi hill station. The most interesting feature of Ponmudi is that fog comes suddenly and sometimes you can't even see anything around you and the heavy wind is also a specialty. It is a popular honeymoon spot in south India. On the way to Ponmudi, you can go to Meenmutty waterfalls, Kallar River also. The bike ride is good to feel nature and chillness.
