Sight Address : Perunthenaruvi Waterfalls are waterfalls 36 km from Pathanamthitta in Pathanamthitta District, Central Travancore region, Kerala State, India. Edit
Detail InformationEdit
Perunthenaruvi waterfall 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 forming a gorgeous display. 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. After splashing as a waterfall, this honey stream further along its course, gets poured into River Pampa. The rocky terrain majestically extends above and below the waterfall. Mighty monsoon unites its droplets to bury bulk of these rocks. As soon as monsoon departs, rocks start to peep up again.
