Kozhippara Waterfalls

There is a forest ticket counter and you have to pay extra for carrying cameras other than regular tickets. Past the counter, there is a well laid narrow road to the falls. A mere walk of 200 metres will lead us to the enchanting waterfall itself. The waterfall is not essentially fully visible from the viewpoint as we are going to the top of the fall. Still, we can catch the glimpse of the waterfall, and the waterfall is less attractive than what’s up there.


The stream is essentially flowing through rocks, which leads to the waterfall in the end, which is a stunning view to have. At both sides there’s naturally slanted rock and the stream flows right through the middle of it. There are many pools with different depths, so anyone can engage with water depending on the proficiency of their swimming. People who are adventurous enough can walk uphill through the stream and can explore new places and new small pools. Walking through the stream is another level of experience, as one has to jump from rock to rock or to go by slanted rocks to reach the top.
There are guards deployed by the forest department for the safety of tourists. It is advisable not to visit this place during the heavy monsoon season, as the water will be having very strong currents. Also the rocks will be slippery which makes this place very dangerous.
