Vagamon Waterfall: Marmala Waterfall is a beautiful waterfall located near Teekoy in Kerala’s Kottayam district. It is one of Kerala’s most magnificent waterfalls, and one of the must-see attractions in Vagamon packages. Marmala Waterfall is formed over the Meenachal River and is located within a private rubber farm. The waterfall is approximately 60 meters (200 feet) tall and falls into a 12-meter-deep basin. Because the depth and intensity of the water are too great to bear, the waterfall is not suggested for bathing.

Vagamon Spirituality: Situated at a distance of 5 km from Vagamon, Kurisumala Hill is considered an important pilgrimage center for Christians. Marked by 14 crosses along the steep pathway going up, there is a church located at the top of the hill.
