Ananganadi is a village in Palakkad district in the state of Kerala, India.[1] Ananganadi is located equidistant from the towns of Ottapalam to the south and Cherpulassery to its north, both about 10 kms from Ananganadi. The village of Vaniamkulam lies 5 kms roughly to the southwest.

The Anangan hills, popularly known as Ananganmala, are 2500 acres of rocky formation interspersed with lush green forests, with a variety of local wildlife. It stretches north-south for approximately 20 kms and at its highest point stands at about 1200 metres. The Anangan hills has an ecotourism centre.
