KERALA TOURS - CENTRAL KERALA WATERFALLS ATHIRAPPALLI and VAZHACHAL

ATHIRAPPALLI and VAZHACHAL

Location: Athirappalli 63 km from Thrissur and Vazhachal 68 km from Thrissur.

Both the waterfalls, their cool, misty waters cascading down in the backdrop of thick green forest and rocky terrain, are a scintillating experience to visitors.
