The waterfall is 300 ft wide, falls from 50 feet, and falls for around seven months a year. The scenic landscape and the park attract people of all age groups. You can hear the rumbling waters even before you see the waterfall. Pilgrims at large also visit the Shiva temple near the waterfall.

Kaalikesam gets its name from a local Kali temple situated amidst the lush green forests of the Western Ghats. Unlike other places on this list, water doesn’t fall from a height at a particular place but rather is a stream with pockets of small waterfalls and pools throughout the path where the stream falls. Kaalikesam is within the Kanyakumari Forest Reserve – you will need permission to visit the place and arrange for private taxis as well. The place is purposely not highlighted as a tourist destination, and roads aren’t well constructed to dissuade casual tourists from disturbing flora and fauna endemic to the forests. The best time to visit Kaalikesam is a few days after rain, as the mountains’ water ensures the stream flows steadily.
