Frequently Asked Questions

  • The best time to visit Kovai Kutralam is from October to February, right after the monsoon season, when the water flow is abundant and the weather is pleasant. The falls are generally closed during the peak summer months due to low water levels and during heavy monsoons for safety.

  • This tour is not very physically demanding. It involves a short walk to the waterfalls and gentle walks in the foothills. It is suitable for people of all age groups with a basic level of fitness.

  • Basic changing rooms and restroom facilities are available near the Kovai Kutralam waterfalls, maintained by the Forest Department. It is advisable to carry a towel and a change of clothes if you plan to get into the water.

  • The full Velliangiri mountain trek is a strenuous activity that takes a whole night and is usually undertaken as a pilgrimage between February and May. This one-day tour only covers the foothills area for a peaceful nature walk and does not include the full trek to the top.

  • We recommend bringing comfortable walking shoes, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and a camera. If you wish to bathe in the falls, bring a change of clothes and a towel. A reusable water bottle is also a good idea to stay hydrated.
