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 km from Ananganadi. The village of Vaniamkulam lies 5 km roughly to the southwest.

It is nestled under the Anangan hills and hence the name Ananganadi.

It stretches north-south for approximately 20 km and at its highest point stands at about 1200 metres. The Anangan hills has an ecotourism centre.
