Athirapally & Vazhachal Waterfalls

Settled at a height of about 80 feet, the majestic waterfalls of Athirapally and Vazchal are a treat for sore eyes, making them ranked amongst the most-sought after tourist places in Athirapally.

Visit here to enjoy a sojourn amidst the sizzling cascades and lush green forests, and you might want to dwell in this breathtaking place even longer.

Charpa Waterfall

Snuggled in between the popular Athirapally and Vazhachal waterfalls is another bewitching natural wonder, called Charpa Falls. Cascading from the height of about 70 feet, this striking waterfall located in Thrissur District looks even more enchanting during the monsoon season, when the moist clouds hover above the falls. If you are longing for a glimpse of the exquisite beauty, then a visit to Charpa Waterfalls can be one of the must-visit attractions in Athirapally.

Chalakudy River

Also referred to as Chalakudy Puzha, Chalakudy River is the source of numerous waterfalls, including Athirapally and Vazchal waterfalls, across the Kerala state. Navigating its way through Thrissur, Ernakulam, Palakkad districts to Tamil Nadu, it is the fourth longest river in the state. Comprising around 98 species of freshwater fish, this river is famed for its marine diversity. Either you choose to take a stroll on its boulevard, or laze along its serene banks, here is a rejuvenating experience awaiting you.

Sholayar Dam

With two reservoirs- one in Tamil Nadu and another in Kerala, you may visit the Lower Sholayar Dam on an excursion to Thrissur District. Fringed with lush forests of Sholayar, this dam is the lifeline of the locals, making it one of the best places to see in Athirapally.

Chiragjain's 5 days trip to Athirapally

We had our first trip planned with Aapka Tripwala. The trip was meticulously planned by Prachita from their team and taken care by Chirag for the ground support. The cab and booked hotel were all in place as promised. They also helped with early check-in at our Udaipur hotel. It was a great experience booking with them. Looking forward to book another trip with them again in future.

Anudeep's 5 days trip to Athirapally

I had the most incredible experience on the Kerala Trip with Travel Triangle/Blessing Trip! From the moment we started, everything was perfectly planned by Komal. She was very helpful in suggesting good hotels and planning the itenary. The transportation was smooth, and the accommodations exceeded my expectations. Plus, the local food we got to try was delicious! I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure.

Sagark's 10 days trip to Athirapally

I recently took a trip to Kerala organized by Travel Triangle, with OIO Travel as the agency. Overall, it was a good experience with some challenges. The main issue was the driver, who lacked communication skills and wasn’t as proactive in guiding us on how to plan our days. On the positive side, the hotels were mostly excellent. Spice Jungle Resort and Golden Sands Beach Resort were top-notch, offering great hospitality and comfort. However, our experience at Hotel Padmam was less satisfying in comparison. Despite the driver’s shortcomings, the trip itself was enjoyable, and I would recommend the package, especially for the quality of most accommodations The best parts of my trip were visiting Rameswaram and Meenakshi temples, enjoying the beaches near Golden Sands Beach Resort, and the peaceful backwater cruise. Staying at Spice Jungle Resort surrounded by nature was also a highlight. Overall, it was a memorable experience

Nv's 4 days trip to Athirapally

Rooms could have been better in Munnar Lots of memories were there like when we visited flaura and fauna best time there with animals and plants

Nv Nagpur

Agrawalvishesh's 8 days trip to Athirapally

Travel agents should have control over the assigned guide/driver. My travel agent was like " we can't guide drivers (who was assigned by them) but can guide customers as drivers are hired through third parties" . What they should understand is their reputation is tied with the assigned guide/driver, & they can't simply deny their responsibility

Agrawalvishesh Hyderabad

Shivam's 5 days trip to Athirapally

THE SERVICE PROVIDED BY MR RANJIT FROM 7C AGENCY WAS EXCELLENT. THE CAB DRIVER WAS ANGRY YOUNG MAN BUT WAS VERY COOPERATIVE NAD HELPFUL. I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT AS TOURIST WE VISIT KERALA FOR SHORT PERIOD AND WE TRY TO UNDERSTAND YOUR CULTURE, SO ATLEAST THE PERSON INTERACTING WITH IS THE MOST, THE DRIVER SHOULD ALSO TRY TO UNDERSTAND OUR BEHAVIOUR AS PER THE PLACE FROM WHERE WE BELONG AND SHOULD BE LENIENT.
