Pitchavaram is a mangrove forest in the middle of rural south India. 16 kms from Chidambaram, this is a popular tourist destination. The lush greenery and the calm backwaters drew me, from far off Chennai, to make a visit. The main attraction of the forest is the boating trips on the estuary through the mangrove forests. The Forestry Department and the Tamilnadu Tourism Department jointly manage this 2800-acre mangrove forest.
The boat ride through the still waters is very relaxing. The trees make arches around the waterway and few rays of sunlight that filter through these tangling branches reflect on the placid waters, to make for an unforgettable experience.Boats can be hired from the tourist counter at Rs 50/- per head, for 1 hour.Video and still cameras not allowed
Route: 16 kms from Chidambaram, can hire taxis, vans, or take local buses. Pichavaram is near chidambaram...abt 220km from chennai....route: chennai-pondy- chidambaram
