Combine the calm coastline of Kannur with an adventurous day in the Western Ghats. Begin with a relaxed beachside stay, a brief visit to St. Angelo Fort and an evening beside the Arabian Sea at Payyambalam Beach. The second day leads inland to Paithalmala, one of Kannur's best-known trekking areas. Follow the more accessible Pottenplave trail through semi-evergreen forest and open grassland before reaching viewpoints overlooking the Coorg valleys and Kannur plains. This compact escape suits active couples, friends and small groups wanting coastal relaxation followed by a rewarding nature experience.
Meet the driver on arrival and transfer to the selected beachside or beach-area hotel in Kannur. Spend time settling in before taking a short sightseeing trip to historic St. Angelo Fort. Later, visit Payyambalam Beach for a peaceful walk and sunset views over the Arabian Sea. Return to the hotel and keep the remainder of the evening free for relaxation.
After an early breakfast, check out and drive towards Paithalmala in the Western Ghats. Begin the approximately five-to-six-kilometre trek from the more accessible Pottenplave side, passing through semi-evergreen forest before reaching open grasslands and elevated viewpoints. Descend carefully after the trek and return to Kannur for a late-evening drop at the airport, railway station or selected hotel.
