The Achankovil River, a 128-kilometre-long west-flowing river, originates in the Western Ghats at Pathanamthitta district at an elevation of 700 metres and joins the Pamba River at Veeyapuram. The abundant rainfall in the region sustains both rivers throughout the year and maintains the region's groundwater levels.
