Located in the beautiful village of Parassinikkadavu, in Kannur, the Parassinikkadavu Snake Park is a unique destination in Kerala. The park is dedicated to the conservation, awareness, and research of reptiles, and watching live demonstrations in this park ranks among the best things to do in Kerala. This park was established in January 1982 and is focused on educating the public about reptiles and their ecological importance. The snake park houses over 150 species of reptiles, including venomous snakes like the King Cobra, Russell’s Viper, and Krait, as well as non-venomous varieties and exotic lizards.
Parassinikkadavu Snake Park is unlike any other wildlife park, as there are live snake handling demonstrations which are conducted by trained professionals. This offers a rare opportunity to understand these creatures in action, safely and responsibly. The park can also be seen as a mini wildlife sanctuary as it also houses crocodiles, monitor lizards, and various species of birds.
With its lush, green surroundings and proximity to the famous Muthappan Temple, the park offers a perfect mix of education, thrill, and nature, making it ideal for families, students, and wildlife lovers.
