Deep Forest Thrills: Our Unforgettable Night Safari and Wildlife Encounters in Nelliyampathi


🐘 Unforgettable Wild Escape: Nelliyampathi with Midhun's Mallus Camp! ⛰️

Just got back from an absolutely unforgettable trip to Nelliyampathi with our group of 24, and I have to give a massive shout-out to Midhun of Mallus Camp for everything! This entire, complex, and thrilling experience was arranged entirely by Midhun himself. If you're looking for an authentic, adrenaline-pumping, and wildlife-rich Kerala experience, Midhun is the person to call!

The Midhun Magic: Organizing 24 Adventurers

Organizing an off-road trip for 24 people deep into a forest is no small task, but Midhun handled it flawlessly. The camaraderie and shared excitement were magnified by the sheer scale of the group, all thanks to his planning:

 * 10 KM Viewpoint Trek: We visited spectacular spots like Seetharkund Viewpoint and Kesavan Para, plus two other stunning viewpoints, enjoying the panoramic vistas together.
 * 
 * 14 KM Deep Forest Trek: The culmination was our destination: a secluded Forest Bungalow, perfectly arranged by Midhun to accommodate our large party deep inside the jungle.

*The Thrill of the Night Ride

The journey to the Forest Bungalow was an experience I'll never forget—a night jeep ride through the dense forest. Imagine the excitement as a convoy carried our group of 24 through the darkness! This thrilling prelude was made possible by Midhun's detailed logistics and planning.

🦌 Wildlife Wonders: A Shared Spectacle
Our deep forest stay gave us spectacular opportunities for wildlife spotting. The collective joy of 24 people spotting these majestic creatures was truly special! We were lucky enough to see:
 * Elephants
 * Deers and Sambar Deers
 * Monkeys
 * The rare Lion-tailed Macaques
 * The beautiful Malabar Giant Squirrel
 * The majestic Great Pied Hornbill
 * 
A Final, Massive Thank You to Midhun!
Midhun didn't just organize a trip; he personally curated a genuine wilderness immersion for a large group. From ensuring safe transportation across challenging terrain to perfectly arranging the group accommodation, everything was executed flawlessly by Midhun alone. He gave us a wonderful, wild, shared adventure that we will cherish forever.

If a raw, exciting, and close-to-nature escape is what you crave, put Midhun's Mallus Camp in Nelliyampathi at the top of your list.

Santosh (2024) – A Quietly Devastating Crime Drama That Holds Up a Mirror to Society

Image
In an era of cinematic spectacle, where loud storytelling often drowns out subtle truths, Santosh (2024) emerges as a rare voice of quiet resistance. Directed by Sandhya Suri and starring the formidable Shahana Goswami, this Hindi-language crime drama is not just a film—it’s an indictment, a meditation, and above all, a mirror to the deeply entrenched social fault lines in India. Plot Overview: A Uniform, A System, A Disappearance The story follows Santosh Saini (Shahana Goswami), a 28-year-old widow in rural North India who is appointed as a police constable through India’s "compassionate appointment" system. Her induction into the force—meant to be a financial lifeline—turns into a moral and emotional crucible when she’s assigned to a case involving the disappearance of a Dalit girl. As Santosh struggles to find her footing in the bureaucratic jungle of law enforcement, she is mentored (and later morally tested) by the hardened Inspector Geeta Sharma (Sunita Raj...

Yesterday, the teachers of St. Thomas Higher Secondary School embarked on a much-anticipated one-day trip to Mandrothu, a journey that proved to be a delightful escape from the routine of school life.

Paddling our way through the calm waters, surro...

Trekking to Varayadumotta: A Challenging Yet Rewarding Experience

Image
Yesterday, I joined about thirty other people on a trek to Varayadumotta, organized by AMAS Kerala. The weather was far from ideal; the unbearable heat posed a significant challenge throughout the journey. The trek involved traversing a difficult forest path with limited access to drinking water, making the ascent, especially the steep 80-degree slopes, incredibly strenuous. We were accompanied by two forest watchers who led the way. Around two in the afternoon, we finally reached the summit, where nature rewarded us with breathtaking views. From Varayadumotta, we could see Ponmudi directly opposite us, and Agasthyamala in the distance to the right. Despite the stunning scenery, the intense heat remained a formidable adversary. The four liters of water each of us carried were almost depleted by the time we reached the top. At three o'clock, we began our descent, which proved to be even more treacherous than the climb. The 80-degree incline meant we had ...
