Ramakkalmedu( രാമക്കൽമേട്‌ ) is a hill station  in Idukki district in the Indian state of Kerala. The place gets its name from the impressions of the feet found on the rock surface here, which is believed to be of Rama, the incarnation of Lord Vishnu, as told in the Indian epic Ramayana.

A noticeably tall, pillar-like rocky structure, about 300 m high and facing east is another attraction here.
