Kerala Destination - Palaruvi Waterfall

Palaruvi Waterfall

Location: About 75 km from Kollam on the Kollam - Shencottah road.
Palaruvi - literally, stream of milk - is one of Kerala's most picturesque waterfalls, cascading down a height of 300 feet. It is a favourite picnic spot for visitors from all over south India. The journey to Palaruvi through the dense tropical forest is a spellbinding experience.

Palaruvi which means stream of milk makes its way down the rocks, from a height of 300 feet. It is a beautiful picnic spot. The PWD Inspection Bungalow and the KTDC Motel here offer comfortable accommodation.

The surrounding mist-clad blue hills and green valleys form a stunning backdrop to the milk-white burst of foam whose muffled roar resounds through the otherwise tranquil virgin forest.

Getting there:
Nearest railway station: Kollam about 75 km. 
Nearest airport: Thiruvananthapuram International Airport, about 72 km from Kollam town.
