Power House Waterfalls
Power House Waterfalls, located near Munnar in the Idukki district of Kerala, is a stunning natural attraction that cascades down a steep rock face from an altitude of 2000 meters above sea level. Situated along the route from Munnar to Thekkady, this waterfall offers a refreshing stopover for travelers on their way to the Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary in Thekkady. Originating from the Sita Devi Lake in Devikulam, the waterfall is approximately 18 kilometers from Munnar and is also known as Chinnakanal Waterfall due to its location in the Chinnakanal village. The name "Power House Falls" comes from an old powerhouse situated nearby.

The water from Sita Devi Lake is reputed to have healing properties, and visitors often report feeling rejuvenated and stress-free after spending time near the falls. There is a small natural pool at the base of the waterfall where visitors can take a refreshing dip.
