In Wayanad, Kunnathidavaka is the first settlement one would come across while traveling along the State Highway 29 from Kozhikode. The highway then touches Vythiri and Chundale, turns south-west and runs past Meppadi and Muppainad before ending at Chitragiri. Beyond Kerala, the road runs up to Gudalur in Nilgiris District (this part of the stretch is under the administration of Tamil Nadu government).
