The Paraunthumpara Hill Viewpoint, also known as the Eagle Rock, gives a beautiful view of the towering hills draped in a canopy of rich vegetation. A sight to behold is the little valleys cutting their own paths along the mountains. Here, you may relax by the waterfalls and take in the ever-effervescent panorama of the hilltops that are calling to you Eagle Rock is only 30 kilometers away from Thekkady. Because it provides views of the Sabarimala Forest and pilgrims from Sabarimala visit Eagle Rock to catch a sight of the Makarajyothi, which is known as the celestial light, this location is seen to be auspicious during Makar Sankranti. Only a few locations have views of it, and Eagle Rock is one of them.
