Gudiyam Caves (75 kms) Situated 10 kms from the Poondi Reservoir at Alikuzhi Ghats, it is believed to be a pre-historic hominid habitation. There are about 16 rock shelters that are naturally formed like canopy-like structures in the reserved forests. It is the right kind of expedition for trekkers and nature-lovers.
The State Department of Archaeology has set up a museum near the Sathyamoorthy Sagar in Poondi exclusively for preserving the exhibits of pre-historic artefacts collected in and around Poondi areas, including the Allikuzhi ghat area.
