This place doesnt have any entertainment. Its juz a park with few shops outside. Even though its a park connected with the reservoir, the place is not green. the park is not maintained properly. instead of stopping here and wasting time, its better u drive up, to valparai would be worth a ride

Just a little distance from this park is the well known Vedatri maharishi ashram.Ashram provides meditation courses of various levels and is really good. The aliyar dam park is maintained by the government and lacks cleanliness.

This place is a very calm place. Not the usual tourist spot with all the glamour. This place is different in a lot of ways. Great place to go with your family on a lazy sunday afternoon. Aliyar lake receives water from Upper Aliyar Reservoir through the hydroelectric power station in Navamali and the Parambikulam reservoir through a contour canal.... More

Dam and it's garden are good for family visits. To a little distance after the dam is the entrance to Aliyar nature reserve and Monkey falls. This path leads up the mountaineous forest terrian of western ghats. It is a good place for nature lovers, nature photography enthuist and those interested in sketching nature landscapes.
