One of the must visit tourist spot in Waynad. There is ample amount of parking space on top. From here it's a short trek to go on top to have a look at the phantom rock formation on one side and a view of the quarry on the other side. No need to go close to the rock as it's quite steep. One can get good pictures from up top.
Very nice place to visit no entry ticket, only pay and park. We can see the beauty of wayanad hills and places. Good for new commers and spend the evening for a small amount of time.
