Surrounded by dense forests and vibrant biodiversity, it is a perfect destination for those seeking a harmonious blend of nature, adventure, and relaxation.
Thusharagiri is a series of three cascading waterfalls, with the main one, Erattumukku, plunging from a height of 75 meters.

Adventure enthusiasts are drawn to Thusharagiri for its trekking trails that wind through the dense forests to the top of the waterfalls. These trails, moderately challenging, reward trekkers with breathtaking views of the cascading water and the surrounding landscapes. Rock climbing and rappelling further add to the thrill, with the rugged terrain and natural rock formations offering an exhilarating outdoor experience. The region is also a hotspot for bird watching and wildlife photography, with its rich fauna providing plenty of opportunities for exploration.
For picnics and leisurely outings, Thusharagiri Waterfalls offers serene spots at the base of the main falls. With shaded areas, benches, and well-maintained paths, visitors can relax, enjoy a stroll, or simply immerse themselves in the tranquillity of nature.
