Thommankuthu

Thommankuthu, 18 kms. away from Thodupuzha, is famous for its numerous waterfalls. The place is ideal for nature lovers. To enjoy the panoramic beauty, the best way is to undertake a trek that takes one to the top of the mountain, a nearly 12 km climb. Under the present circumstances, only one day tours can be conducted ,owing to the lack of boarding and lodging facilities. The ‘Chitrakoodam’ project aims at installing essential and basic facilities here.

The waterfall gets its name from Kolumban, a tribal leader who was washed away in the water long ago. The height of the waterfall is 1500m. Foreign and native tourists in large numbers visit the place to spend time at the seven-step waterfall with pools at each step. Trekking, night camping and bird watching are some of the recommended experiences.
