Punnayar Waterfalls — Attraction in Kerala

An unforgettable experience in my life and one of the best ever experience in idukki expedition. A place on a remote area near forest which mainly have three points one is the upper portion of the waterfall, the river then by crossing the river walking through a narrow path we can see the view of a beautiful valley . And then the water fall, path to the water fall  narrow in rainy days it would be slippery any way a small trucking experience, the place is much better than the photographs such an experience no word to expess. a place where we can get relaxed chill on water and be refreshed. The place is not that much dangerous the water level is so low and the rocks can protect us. Moving near to the waterfall is little bit dangerous the rocks are slippery but it is a different experience. As compared to munnar water is not that much cold....but it is untouched... The place is referred to all kind of people, except old peoples.... the two big trees nearby make it much beautiful and the wild ambience is an another feel. Punnayar water fall is situated near kanjikuzhi,idukki which is 25km away from adimali and 40km away...

Punnayar falls is a great destination for a one day trip. What makes it special is that a visit to the place offers some trekking and refreshing views.

There are 2 distinct locations to enjoy the falls. The nearest and easily accessible is the waterfall B, which is the smaller one. A visit after the rains would be the best, as in the case of any waterfalls.

If you return to the road and walk further ahead, you can enjoy a scenic view of the serene valley and then climb down towards the waterfall A. The path down to the falls can be challenging for children and elderly people.

Weekends can be crowded with people coming in to spend some time with friends and family. Yet if you can visit when it is less crowded, it can be a beautiful experience.

Small cars and two wheelers can be better, as there are some areas where the road is narrow. And if you are carrying any consumables for your trip, Please don't litter the place with Plastic and Waste.

Enjoy the beauty and help...
