The falls are enveloped by dense forests and an excellent place for enjoying nature's peaceful solitude. Make sure to carry some eatables or snacks to satisfy your hunger pangs.
After covering two waterfalls in Tamil Nadu, it is time to explore Kerala’s natural wonder, Palaruvi falls.

You can witness the tall, glittering falls from an observation tower present near it, and it makes for a majestic sight. The falls are surrounded by dense tropical forest, and it is suggested to carry a raincoat since the place is usually rainy.
After wandering all day, visit Theni Deer park, where you can give rest to your feet, watch some wildlife, and relax amidst greenery before returning. The deer park is situated in the heart of Theni town at the foothills of the Kodaikanal hills. The park is mainly meant for wildlife enthusiasts and people with a love of ecology. It is a quiet and peaceful place to unwind before returning home.
If you have more time, a few places can be added to the itinerary like Vaigai Dam or Sri Lanka Devi Temple, which are situated near Suruli falls. If you have less time, you can skip a fall, Kumbakarai, to reduce the duration to 6-7 hours. Remember to carry a camera or phone with a good camera to capture the scenic beauty of the mesmerizing waterfalls, and it is wise to carry waterproof protection to keep your devices safe. Do not forget to carry your ID card and some extra cash as in case of emergencies.
