Why to visit Bear Shola Falls
The Bear Shola Falls is a well-liked picnic location in the area and is only 2 kilometres from Kodaikanal Lake. The monsoon season is when this cascade, a seasonal attraction, comes to life to the fullest. The intriguing history behind this location's unusual name claims that a bear used to frequent this water feature to drink water, giving rise to the name Bear Shola Falls.
Bear Shola Falls, which is surrounded by thick trees and filled with the sound of birdsong, is a tiny slice of heaven. Additionally, the Western Ghats forest area next to the falls is a hotspot for biodiversity where you may encounter primates like monkeys and deer in the wild.
The area surrounding the Bear Shola Falls is sloping and free of commercial development, making it the ideal place to embark on a trekking expedition. You will come across the hill route where you can use a motorised vehicle as you get closer to the falls. From there, a short, one-kilometer hike through dense forest is accessible by a concrete route.
