Enveloped by the Malayattoor forest, the riverside lodge allows you to experience nature in all its forms. From the harried and time-crunched city dweller seeking some peace and quiet, to the adventurer who can’t wait to get out and explore, there is something for everyone at Quiet by the River.
The adventure begins as soon as you start the journey to the river lodge - a 30-minute drive up a rugged path through the forest. Look carefully and you may just spot an elephant on the way up. Once you reach the embarkation point, a country canoe picks you up to help you traverse the last part of the journey. The rhythmic sound of the bamboo oars in water, the pleasant sound of the gurgling Periyar river and the chirping of birds welcome you to a world that is a far cry from the sights and sounds of city life. Feel the stress melting away as you take a deep breath and watch the beauty of nature unfold. One of Malayattoor’s best kept secrets, Quiet by the River is located on a 47-acre island that allows you to pause and experience the wonder of nature, one unhurried moment at a time.
