Why to visit Hiking at Thalaiyar Falls
The Thalaiyar Falls, sometimes referred to as Rat Tail Falls, is the tallest waterfall in Tamil Nadu. Thalaiyar Falls, which cascades from the beautiful Palani Hills in Dindigul District, is around 40 kilometres from Kodaikanal. One of the most well-liked adventurous activities near Thalaiyar Falls is hiking. However, just the bottom of the falls are permitted, and only in the summer and winter.
Starting at the incredibly picturesque Manjalar Dam, the hike to Thalaiyar Falls begins. This is particularly true because the dam crosses some lovely mango and potato farms that are located near Manjalar Reservoir. From here, one must ascend along the water's path until they arrive at a modest temple honouring Goddess Kamakshi. After that, hikers should continue to follow the stream's route.
The actual ascent up the creek begins from this point. To finally reach the base of the Thalaiyar Falls, you will need to overcome a number of challenging terrain features and sizable, slippery rocks. The hike lasts all day and is about 15 kilometres long.
