- Konni Elephant Training Center: Established in 1942, this center is one of the oldest elephant training facilities in Kerala. It features large wooden cages known as Kambakoodu used for housing wild elephants.

The main attraction is the Coracle Boating experience, where traditional round boats glide through the calm waters of the river. The surrounding woods provide a peaceful environment for relaxation and nature photography.
- Achankovil River: Flowing through the dense forests of the Western Ghats, this river is central to the local ecosystem. The riverbanks offer picturesque views and are home to several ancient shrines and small waterfalls. The tranquil atmosphere and the rhythmic sound of flowing water make it a preferred spot for short halts and scenic walks.
- Kumbhavurutty Waterfalls: Located within the forest area, these falls cascade from a height of approximately 25 meters. The site is a popular destination for trekking and nature observation due to its rich biodiversity. The pool at the base of the waterfall is often used by tourists for a refreshing dip under the supervision of forest authorities.
