Location
Seethargundu viewpoint is situated in the Western Ghats at Nelliyampathy at a distance of 8 km. This place is associated with Hindu mythology. It is believed that Ram, Lakshman and Sita rested here during their fourteen years exile. Seethargundu waterfall that flows from 100 ft gives a wonderful experience. This place gives a panoramic view of stone queries and paddy fields spread around resembling a green blanket.

Seethargundu estate is one of the best organic farm cultivating tea and coffee. Mampara, Padagiri, Kesavpara and Pothundy reservoirs are some of the near by attractions worth visiting.
