## About this event

Ezharakund Waterfalls is a unique seven-tiered natural waterfall located in Kudianmala near Paithalmala in Kannur district, Kerala. Set amidst the scenic hills of the Western Ghats, this lesser-known attraction is famous for its distinctive formation of seven rocky pools and cascading streams, which give the waterfall its name, meaning “seven-and-a-half pits” in Malayalam. Surrounded by lush green landscapes, flowing streams, and peaceful hill scenery, Ezharakund offers a refreshing experience for nature lovers, photographers, and adventure enthusiasts exploring northern Kerala. The waterfall features a series of natural rock pools formed at different levels, creating a beautiful stepped cascade where water flows from one rocky basin to another. Visitors reach the falls through a trekking route of around 2 km from the Chathamala Facility Centre, passing through shaded pathways and scenic hillside surroundings. The destination is especially attractive during the monsoon and post-monsoon seasons when increased rainfall enhances the beauty of the cascades and surrounding greenery. Safety rails and designated walking paths help visitors navigate the terrain, as some sections of the stream contain deep crevices and slippery rocks. Located near the famous Paithalmala hill region, Ezharakund Waterfalls is an ideal destination for travellers seeking offbeat nature experiences, scenic trekking routes, and the peaceful beauty of Kerala’s Western Ghats. With its unique rock formations, multi-level cascades, and tranquil surroundings, Ezharakund remains one of Kannur’s most fascinating natural attractions.
