Aliyar Dam Park - Park in Aliyar - Coimbatore, India

We,the friend visited this park it's good drive from coimbatore and good place for family and friends. Small rides for children. The view from the dam is amazing.Park is situated nearby dam and locationwise very nice place. It is on the way to Valparai from Pollachi. We enjoyed the park with family and friends. Children will enjoy the park which is more spacious. Earlier years film shooting taken here. Needs further improvement and maintenance.This place is a good getaway with family or friends.. especially in the evening time. They have an entry fee and the garden is just okay (not maintained properly).. but when you take the stairs (many stairs - not recommended for people with knee problem or old age) the scene is beautiful.Children's can enjoy this place. Don't miss the boating. At the time of my visit, There was only one boat and waited for almost 45 mins to get my chance. You will enjoy this 15 - 20 min ride. Better to visit early in the morning or late in the evening. Check timings before you visit this place and plan accordingly.They charge you Rs. 25 at entrance (Entrance + Mobile phone Camera). When you enter you will see broken fountains, non functioning lights, Plastic bottles ridden canal, food paper plates thrown all over, stinking and unclean toilets, Garbage and stench all over. Then you will find 180 steps to climb to the top of the reservoir and then its bliss. Beautiful sight of water against 180 degree mountain backdrop. Perfect for taking great photos. If only the Holy TN govt cares for Tourism or Tourist sites, places like Azhiyar will be become true gem of a place to visit and picnic until then forget Azhiyar and its disgusting, disease causing stench. Looks like Local Hoteliers and traders have no clue on how tourism can enhance their business as they seldom protest the disgusting maintenance of the park with the PWD department.

Not a great fan of play parks but indeed will be the best for the kids to play around. The highlight of this park was the long staircase up to the dam road from where one can see the view of the entire reservoir. The misty huge mountains gave us the feel of the Jurassic park. There is a small stream flowing through the park which dried up when we went there. The entry fee is 10 /- and 5/- for the mobile camera.

One of the main tourist place in Pollachi. Big and vast park but very poor maintenance. Only recommended to visit in evening time because the park lacks good shades to rest. Didn't climb up to see the dam view that seemed not worth in that time. No special parking area and have to park in the roadside which have good shades but along with a parking fee. Area is good for refreshments and good foods available nearby.

Visited this place while coming back from Valparai. Calm and beautiful. Very huge dam with Misty mountains in the background. Small stream of water flows inside the park.

5 rs for entry 10 rs for phone/camera th place is not well maintained but it's has a great view visit it during rain you will have a great view to witness you have vlimb steps to reach top visit it during weekend you will have a peaceful visit

The aliyar dam reservoir park , on the way to valparai is an excellent place to relax and enjoy. We visited the reservoir in October this year. The weather was very good.The place being well connected by bus and being quite near the city of Coimbatore is really a good place to visit with family and friends.

Though it could be better maintained, the park attached to the dam is an attraction for many. The walk through the park and on the dam are an opportunity for a workout. Carry enough drinking water with you. There's an opportunity for a nice boat ride on the dam backwaters. Car parking is mostly along the street side. Very limited eateries on the site.

Nice place for family and couples. You must go in the morning or in the evening because of the hot atmosphere. You would find very calm and quiet place there to enjoy with your family and loved ones. There is some restaurants on the opposite side of the ticket counter where you can get some delicious fish fries on demand. In addition, we can see breathtaking view of Aliyar dam on the way to Valparai. We can see the reservoir on each hairpin of the Valparai route. This route is awesome with lots of trees and scenes.
