Location Poonthottam Ayurvedasram is located in a serene village - ideally suited for healing - called Kulakkad in Palakkad district of Kerala. Kulakkad is near a small town called Cherpulassery. Please find the google map for driving directions given below.
Getting here There are many options - domestic train/rail, air or road. Train services to the Palakkad Junction or Shornur junction are available from many cities in India. International visitors can come via international airports (Chennai, Cochin, Bangalore, Mumbai etc) and then take connecting domestic flights to Cochin, Coimbatore or Kozhikode (formerly Calicut). From these three airports the asram can arrange for taxi service if the arrival details are informed and this service is requested. The taxi fares are:
Kochin Airport INR 3000.00
Fort Kochi INR 4000.00
Coimbatore Air port INR 2500.00
Calicut Airport INR 2000.00
Shornur Rly station INR 800.00
Palakkad Rly station INR 850.00
Other city from where the asram can be approached is Thrissur. The nearest town, Cherpulassery, is 15 minutes away. These roads are not divided highways, they are a bit bumpy and there is a fair amount of traffic. Inflatable cushions can help those with back problems. Payment for the taxi service should be made in Indian Rupees (INR) directly to the driver on reaching the asram or the airport.
