Meenvallam Waterfalls – The Graceful Charm of Palakkad

Surrender to the serenade of Nature! Let the soothing rhythm of the cascading waterfall in Palakkad district and the cheerful melodies of birds envelop you in tranquil bliss. Take a ride along Nature – the narrow roads will lead you toward the mesmerising Meenvallam Waterfalls. Just a short distance of 30 km from Palakkad town lies this captivating destination, where you can embark on a magical journey over quaint wooden bridges and to other unique attractions.

Tucked away within lush forests, Meenvallam Waterfalls stands as a pristine treasure in Palakkad district, which falls dramatically from a height of 45 meters into the Thuppanadu river, that flows from the majestic Kalladikodan hills. The forest surrounding the five-step waterfall is part of the Silent Valley National Park, home to diverse flora and fauna. The leisurely hike to the waterfalls offers a scenic view, with babbling streams, dense forest canopy, boulders and a captivating hanging bridge enriching the natural beauty of the area.

The fall is accessible via a 2-kilometer trek that includes crossing the Thuppanadu River. The ideal time to visit this site is in October, following the monsoon season, when the weather is more favourable.
