## About this event

Kava Eco Camp and Caravan Park is a hybrid caravan tourism and nature-stay destination at Manthuruthy in the Kava area of Malampuzha, Palakkad district, Kerala, developed as part of the state's Keravan Kerala initiative to promote caravan-based travel, responsible tourism and new forms of nature-oriented accommodation. Kerala Tourism officially describes Kava Eco Camp and Caravan Park as Kerala's first fully integrated hybrid caravan park and records that it was inaugurated in 2025 at Manthuruthy, Malampuzha, near Palakkad. The project was developed in line with Kerala's Caravan Tourism Policy and combines accommodation, caravan facilities, recreation and opportunities for visitors to experience the surrounding Malampuzha landscape. The wider Kava locality is officially listed by Kerala Tourism in Malampuzha Panchayat, with the Kava area situated along the Anakkallu route and approximately 9 kilometres from Malampuzha Dam. The setting makes Kava Eco Camp particularly relevant to travellers interested in Malampuzha tourism, caravan holidays in Kerala, eco-friendly accommodation, outdoor recreation and scenic travel around Palakkad. The official Kerala Tourism description states that the park provides facilities for six large caravans and six camper vans, along with electric charging points for cars and scooters, ten tourist rooms, a restaurant, drinking-water facilities, laundry services, a dormitory for drivers, a sewage-treatment plant and a swimming pool. These facilities reflect the project's role as more than a conventional campground, combining caravan parking with fixed accommodation and visitor services in a natural setting. The park is also designed around experiences that connect visitors with the surrounding destination rather than keeping them entirely within the property. Kerala Tourism highlights cycle and jeep safaris through the Malampuzha landscape, along with opportunities for interaction with local communities, traditional meals, visits to cottage industries and purchasing local handicrafts. These activities are consistent with Kerala's wider Responsible Tourism approach, which seeks to link tourism with local communities and encourage environmentally conscious travel. The accommodation component provides visitors with a conventional stay option alongside caravan and camper-van facilities, making the destination suitable for travellers who want to explore Malampuzha while staying close to the reservoir and surrounding hills. Current property information from the operating resort identifies multiple room categories, dedicated caravan and campervan parking, a swimming pool, birdwatching opportunities and an open lawn for events, although individual facilities and operating arrangements can change and should be confirmed directly before travel. Kava's location also places visitors within reach of several established Palakkad attractions, including Malampuzha Dam and Garden and the wider Kava viewpoint landscape. The official Kerala Tourism location directory identifies Kava specifically in Malampuzha Panchayat, providing the geographic reference for the destination. The broader caravan tourism concept in Kerala is intended to support travel to accessible but less-explored destinations while maintaining standards for safety, hygiene, waste management and environmental responsibility. Kerala Tourism's caravan policy framework states that caravan parks should be located in natural settings and incorporate appropriate safety, sanitation, waste-management and infrastructure measures, illustrating the policy context in which Kava was developed. For visitors interested in Kerala caravan tourism, Malampuzha travel, eco-tourism, nature stays, Western Ghats scenery and responsible travel, Kava Eco Camp and Caravan Park provides a distinctive accommodation model combining conventional rooms with caravan and camper-van facilities. Its appeal comes from the combination of a scenic Malampuzha setting, organised accommodation, outdoor activities and opportunities to engage with the surrounding local landscape and communities. The destination therefore represents an emerging form of tourism in Palakkad where nature, mobility, comfortable accommodation and responsible travel are brought together within Kerala's expanding caravan tourism network.
