Karapuzha Dam, Adventure Park & Garden

Wonderful place. Can't believe such a space existed. Very similar to ooty botanical gardens. But with a pinch of adventure too. Work is in progress. When finished it can become one of the most sought after tourist destination. I think presently there's a shortage of staff their. Hope everything will be in top spot by next year.

This is the lengthy earthen dam in Asia. From the main gate the path leads to the main building and the nearby garden. On both sides of the path royal Palm has been planted that gives impressive look. Zip line point attracts youth in plenty. The children park is pretty. Some uncommon varieties of flowering plants are sen here. Wash rooms are neat and tidy and also sufficient. Some construction work is still going on in a slow phase and I wish it could be completed before the coming Onam festival.

It is a nice place for kids as well as family. Lot of games (paid) are also there. Children’s can enjoy a lot, by participating in the games. Overall place is very good, well maintained garden, lot of space to walk along the garden side and there is a dam. Adventure sports items are also available. A family can spend good amount of time with their kids over there, not doubt.

Amazing place to have an evening walk the amazing view of the reservoir,lake and the dam with the surrounding mountains and greenery is quite astonishing. Highly recommended if you are going to visit with family. The place is quite crowded usually and its hard to find a proper parking space

It's good place for a walk in evening and morning but not recommended in noon and it's only good if the Dam is filled up if not going out to this location is quite annoying. Ticket would cost 30/p and extra for cameras.
View is decent as usual with respect to all other Dam location.
People interested in zipline activity can give it a try and for now the place is still under renovation no much sight seeing here.
Overall average place to visit.

Fantastic place to visit with family. I visited there in the evening at 5 o'clock. After getting the ticket, we will enter a fantastic garden which is well maintained. This garden is very pleasing and very greenish. When you see this you will think it would be much better if we kept other tourist destinations like this. This place is very family friendly because it is a completely smoke-free zone and it is very clean and calm. After the vast garden, you will enter the second area of the park. In the second area, you will see a wide variety of flowers, plants etc. If you visit this place in the evening it will be a fantastic experience. Here we can see so many rides and adventure activities, like slingshot means human slingshot. But from this there is a very good children's park which is available for children's below 12 years and that is very good. After this area, you will enter the third and the final portion of the park, which is the dam. The dam was kept very neat and it was very beautiful.

The entry fee : RS 30 for adults, free for children (I think)

NB tickets for the rides need to be purchased separately

Such a nice place to spend some time with family and friends. Kids will definitely enjoy the garden at the dam. Flower maintenance was great. We tried zipline before getting here so avoided it, but this one looked longer than we did. And Human slingshot was there but wasn't available during our visit.

I visited here two years before and only garden was available at that time and was in a development state.. Now Karapuzha become a main spot to spend evenings and introduced adventure activities. Weight limitations are there for all activities. Below 75 for most the activities, Zip line allowing upto 140. One rope is for weight above 90. You can easily spend an evening with friends and family here. Also zip line view is awesome, 600m and will take around 50-60secs.
