Konni Eco-Tourism Centre

Konni, a forested village in the State of Kerala in South India, situated on the bank of the mighty Achencoil River has a long and rich history of the man-forest interface. The vast expanse of forests of the Western Ghats in the background is crisscrossed by numerous streams and rivulets, which add to the exceptional scenic beauty of the landscape.

The forests, a repository of rich biodiversity were constituted into Konni Reserve Forests and Achencoil Reserve Forests by the Maharaja of Travancore way back in 1897 and 1901 respectively, among the oldest reserve forests in the State.
