Ulakkai Aruvi Waterfalls, Kanyakumari
Ulakkai Aruvi is a waterfall located in the middle of forested hills (the hills of the Western Ghats), which is accessible by foot from the base of the hills. This falls is in the Asambu reserve forest, near Azhagiapandiapuram, Kanyakumari.
Ulakkai Aruvi Falls is a mesmerizing waterfall formed over Pazhayar River. Ulakkai meaning "Pestle". This falls is in the shape of a very long huge round log; therefore its name 'ulakkai aruvi'. Ulakkai Aruvi is also referred to as Rod Falls.
There are two falls - the lower falls, and the higher falls. We can go and take bath in lower falls. Be safe with your family while walking because lots of pebbles are there under water. To reach the Higher falls, needs to climb about 200 meters uphill from Lower Falls. There is no permission to go higher falls because of rocky forested area.
