Teave
Kiired faktid: Küngas tõuseb 286 meetrit üle merepinna ja oli sajandeid tagasi Chola dünastia peamine mereväeõppebaas. Selle hiirepea meenutav kuju andis piirkonnale nime, mis tuleneb malajalami sõnadest "ezhi" (hiir) ja "mala" (küngas).
Esiletõstmised: Künka sees peitub 150 jala pikkune iidne tunnel nimega "Marmala tunnel", mille kohalikud legendid väidavad ühendanud küngast Tipu Sultani kindlusega, mis asub kilomeetrite kaugusel. Kõnni pimedusse ainult taskulambiga ja tunned jaheda õhu liikumist, seistes kätega raiutud käigus, mis on üle 300 aasta vana.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Bring a strong flashlight or headlamp for the Marmala Tunnel, phone lights won't cut it in the deeper sections.
- Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes, the trail gets slippery near the summit after any rain.
- The Naval Academy museum on the hill requires advance permission to enter, so skip it unless you've arranged a visit beforehand.
- Visit on a weekday morning to have the summit almost entirely to yourself, weekends draw crowds from nearby Kannur.
