How To Reach Vembanad Lake
How to Reach
By Air: The lake is around 70-80 KMS from Cochin International Airport (COK). From the airport, a taxi can take you to the primary jetty points in Kumarakom (the main entry point to the lake) in about 2. 5 hours. This is the fastest and most convenient way to reach the backwaters for international and domestic travelers.
By Train: The nearest major railhead is Kottayam Railway Station (KTYM), located about 15 KMS from the Kumarakom shore points. Kottayam is well-connected to all major cities. From the station, you can hire a taxi or auto-rickshaw to your pre-booked houseboat or resort jetty, which will serve as your entry point to the lake.
By Road: Kumarakom is well-connected by state highways. It takes approximately 3 hours to drive from Thiruvananthapuram (the capital) and about 2. 5 hours from Kochi. State buses and private cabs run regularly to Kottayam, from where local transport is necessary to reach the various docking points on the lake.
By Local Transport: Within Kumarakom, the backwaters themselves are the main local transport network. Local ferries and shared water taxis are available for crossing the lake or reaching various islands like Pathiramanal. Auto-rickshaws are the best option for traveling from land-based accommodation to the boat jetties.
