Parambikulam Tiger Reserve, Nature reserve in Chalakkudy, India.

The reserve spans 643 square kilometers across Palakkad and Thrissur districts, featuring hills, forests, and three artificial reservoirs covering 20 square kilometers.

The reserve began as a 285 square kilometer wildlife sanctuary in 1973 before expanding and receiving official tiger reserve status in February 2010.

Four indigenous tribes - Kadar, Malasar, Muduvar, and Mala Malasar - reside in six colonies within the reserve, maintaining their traditional connections to the land.

Visitors can participate in jungle safaris, guided treks, and nature camps, with local tribal members serving as expert guides through the forest paths.

The reserve contains the Kannimara Teak, a 450-year-old tree that received the Mahavriksha Puraskar award for its historical and botanical significance.
