Perunthenaruvi Waterfalls
Pathanamthitta, Kerala 686511
Perunthenaruvi waterfalls (also Perumthenaruvi) is located in the dense Sabarimala forest area, just 10 kilometres away from Erumeli, the renowned set off point for Sabarimala Pilgrimage. At Perumthenaruvi, water gushes through a gorge.The display is fantastic.The slant may ultimately reach about 100 ft height.Further, the water gracefully flows through areas of rocks, trees and wild flowers radiating a lovely feel. Great many bees, settled in the adjacent woods, have transformed here to a Kingdom of beehives. Naturally, the stream flowing through this area came to be called the great honey stream – Perunthenaruvi (also Perumthenaruvi) in local vernacular.
Mornings are the best time to visit here as strong sunshine tends to make the rocks hot. Perunthenaruvi, a picnic spot with a secluded feel, rarely gets crowded.
