Along the Way
The Road from Cochin Airport to Vagamon
Look for your driver outside the arrivals exit at Terminal 3 or Terminal 1. A Kochi Airport to Vagamon taxi leaves the airport east through Kalady and joins the MC Road at Perumbavoor. At Muvattupuzha, the Cochin Airport to Vagamon via Thodupuzha route turns south-east to the busy town of Thodupuzha. A Cochin Airport to Thodupuzha taxi reaches here in about 1.5 hours. Beyond Thodupuzha, a CIAL to Vagamon taxi passes Moolamattom, home to a big underground power station, and starts the steep climb. Bends tighten, rubber gives way to forest, and the air turns cool within half an hour. The Cochin Airport to Vagamon via Erattupetta route is the other option, going through Pala and climbing from Erattupetta. Drivers pick whichever road is clearer that day. Both routes pass small tea shops, and the Erattupetta side has good views of the valley. The Cochin Airport to Vagamon distance by road is about 95 km. A Cochin Airport to Vagamon resort transfer ends at stays near the meadows or the pine forest. A Cochin Airport to Kurisumala taxi goes on to the hilltop ashram and its walking trail. Thangal Para and Murugan Mala, two other viewpoints, are close by.
