Read moreI have NEVER been this frustrated in my life. DO NOT waste your time going to Anju Veedu Waterfall! The experience was absolutely horrendous, and I would give ZERO stars if I could.
First of all, the road leading to the waterfall is an absolute disaster. The entire 4 km stretch is filled with rocks, huge potholes, and deep gashes that made it nearly IMPOSSIBLE to drive. We had to crawl at a snail's pace, praying that our car didn’t get damaged or worse, get stuck in the mess of a road! And to top it off, the road just ends! There’s literally NO more road after a certain point. We drove all that way, thinking we were getting close, only to find that the road just... stops. You can’t go forward, and there's no warning or signage anywhere. Absolutely ridiculous!
My heart was in my throat the whole time, with the car almost tipping over into the hill of water below! Who designed this road? It's an accident waiting to happen, and I’m shocked nobody has gotten seriously hurt already. No clear directions, no warning signs, no help.
I highly recommend staying FAR AWAY from this place. It’s dangerous, poorly maintained, and a waste of time. I’m incredibly disappointed, and honestly, I feel like I deserve a refund for the emotional distress...
Read moreAmazing place. Dangerous too. Deaths have happened, last year and last week. Not recommended to swim near the waterfall half of the pond. Entry was free, but then got harassed by the forest guards. Guess a scam is going on set with the driver, driver's car had Michael Jackson's poster, and the name starts with 'S'. Later came to know nobody was posted there from the forest department. The Forest officer didn't give his name or details. Entering forest reserve area fine is Rs.1000 per person. But this seems not to be a reserved area. Just because of election time and death happened two weeks ago. In the end worth the trouble, had a nice time and immersed in hidden gems of Kodaikanal. Please take permissions from forest and tourist department. Can't disclose more information because of the...
