The Banasura Sagar Dam constructed in 1979, is located 21 km from Kalpetta, in Wayanad District of Kerala in the Western Ghats. The Banasura Sagar dam, a kilometer long earth structure is the largest earthen dam in India and the second largest in Asia. It impounds the waters of the Karamanathodu, a tributary of the Kabini river.
The reservoir formed by the dam is dotted with tiny islands enveloped in thick foliage, and with the Banasura hill in the background, offers a magnificent view. At an altitude of 3200 feet in the mist-clad hills of Wayanad, Banasura is an ideal retreat for the traveler who looks for a more enriching experience than a mere vacation. Located in the midst of lovely, mist-clad hills with a wildlife sanctuary and park full of flowering trees, this spot of enchantment has no parallel elsewhere. With its placid crystal clear waters Banasura is a wonderful picnic spot.
