Athirappilly Falls
Largest waterfall in Kerala, dramatic in monsoon, a relative trickle in peak summer.
Athirappilly Falls is in good shape right now. Only 175 mm in 30 days — water is reduced; expect a thinner flow than monsoon photos. A short trip this week looks worthwhile.

It is the largest waterfall in Kerala, which stands tall at 81.5 feet. Just a short drive from Athirappilly is the Vazhachal Falls, which is close to dense green forests that are home to many endangered and endemic species of flora and fauna. Athirappilly Falls is the largest waterfall in Kerala and is nicknamed "The Niagara of South India". Controversy about a state-proposed hydroelectric dam on the Chalakudy River above the waterfalls began in the 1990s and continued through 2017.
