Kattappana
Kattappana is a vibrant municipal town situated in the high ranges of Idukki district in Kerala, India, at an elevation of around 950m above sea level. Recognized as a major commercial and economic hub for the surrounding region, it has grown steadily since the 1950s, primarily through migration from Central Travancore areas.
The town's economy is largely driven by agriculture, especially the cultivation of spices like cardamom and pepper, which thrive in its cool, tropical monsoon climate marked by moderate temperatures and significant rainfall during the monsoon months. Kattappana holds the distinction of being Kerala’s first municipality to achieve Open Defecation Free status, reflecting its commitment to sanitation and civic administration.
Apart from its bustling commercial activity, Kattappana is also celebrated for its lush greenery, surrounding plantations, and nearby attractions like Anchuruli Tunnel and Kalvary Mount, making it a scenic gateway in the Western Ghats.
