LocationNagercoil, Tamil Nadu
Total height54.6m

Ulakkai Aruvi (also referred to as Rod Falls)[1] is a waterfall on the Western Ghats. This area is in the Asambu reserve forest, in Kanyakumari District, Tamil Nadu.

Location

Ulakkai Aruvi Falls is about 39 km (24 mi) from Kanyakumari and about 19 km (12 mi) from Nagercoil, near Azhagiapandiapuram. The falls are in the middle of forested hills (the hills of the Western Ghats), and is accessible by an hour-long trek from the base of the hills through a rocky, forested area. There are two falls–the lower falls, and the higher falls, which are further uphill. The falls are fed by the Ulakkai, a spring originating in the nearby Anamalai Hills.[2]
