Kanthanpara Falls
കാന്തൻപാറ വെള്ളച്ചാട്ടം
A small waterfall among tea gardens near Meppadi, dropping about 30 metres. It is a few minutes’ walk from the car park and quieter than Soochipara.
The falls sit in a valley ringed by tea and coffee plantations. From the parking area, it is a 5–10 minute walk, suitable for older visitors and children. Water tumbles from the rock face into a shallow pool, and flat rock platforms around it provide places to sit and rest. Far fewer people visit than Soochipara Falls. The falls are often visited together with Soochipara Falls and Chembra Peak on the same day. After rain, the rocks are slippery, so do not try to climb to the top of the falls.
Opening hours
About 09:00–17:00
