It is surrounded by three scenic hillocks—Mankunnu, Kudayathur (Kodayathoormala), and Thonippara which create a natural valley that fills up during the monsoon to form a beautiful, leaf-free pond, inspiring the name which means "the pond of flowers where leaves do not fall."
Famous for its panoramic views, visitors can see large parts of nearby districts and experience both sunrise and sunset from this serene spot. The place is rich in mythology, linked to legends of the Pandavas and Draupadi from the Mahabharata, and is popular for trekking and nature walks due to its lush greenery and rugged terrain.
It is accessible from Kottayam and nearby towns, and the district tourism is working to develop it as a trekking destination with facilities like a tourist bungalow. Ilaveezha Poonchira offers a tranquil retreat with its cool climate, striking landscapes, and cultural stories, making it a favored destination for both adventure seekers and those looking to unwind in nature.
