===Important trading center===

[[Kodumunda]]
[[Karakkuthangadi]]
Muthuthala

==Transportation==
===Waterways===
There had been a trade link passing through the River Bharathapuzha. Varantakuttikkatavu was a ferry point which was connecting Thrithala, the local market place and [[Kodumunda]], one of the market place in muthuthala now there is no water transportation available by the coming of new roads. About fifteen years back small boats and rafts are a major scene of this area.

===Road===

The village, located 8 km from Pattambi on the Pattambi-Pallippuram Road, and can be reached by road and rail. The road from Pattambi forks in two directions at the Muthuthala junction. One road goes to Pallippuram and the other one reaches the state highway to [[Perinthalmanna]] at Trithala Koppam junction. A diversion from Parakkad, a local village connects [[Perinthalmanna]]- [[Pattambi]] state highway at Sankaramangalam.

Rail

''[[Kodumunda]]'' is the only railway station in Muthuthala, which is en route to [[Kozhikode]] on the Shoranur–Kozhikode railway line. Only a few passenger trains halt at this station, so the preferable means to reach Muthuthala is by road. Pattambi is the main railway station nearby where most of the trains do have a stopping.
