The Barachukki Falls is a graceful one and the more popular. The way down to the waterfall is relatively safe as it fenced with railings and there are benches to sit on and relax for a while when you get tired. The waterfall is a vibrant sight to watch during the monsoon season when the volume of water gushing down the rocks increases substantially. The waterfall can be enjoyed from close quarters as there are shallow areas near the place where the water plunges.

Interesting Facts

  • An interesting way to watch the beauty of the waterfall is to take a coracle ride to the mouth of the magnificent waterfall. The mist formed from the water plunging at great speed from the cliff above is a great sight.
