Ambukuthi mala is a mountain in the Wayanad district of Kerala, India. It is 12 km from Sulthan Bathery and near Ambalavayal. Three pre-historic caves (Edakkal Caves) are located at a height of 1,000 metres on Ambukuthi mala. You have to get down at Edakkal and do a 1 km trekking to reach these caves. One can see the new stone age pictorial writings on the walls of these natural caves.
The 1 km trekking is a neatly laid tar road. The jeep service available there should help you reach office at the top. From there it’s a 200 meters trek to reach the pre-historic caves. 100 meters above the caves is the spectacular view of the junction of Kerala, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu borders through the forests (though a little tough to trek for normal people provides a beautiful view of the junction).
