Haritheerthakara Waterfalls, also known locally as Ariyil Waterfalls or Chooral Waterfalls, is a scenic seasonal waterfall located near Payyanur in the Kankol–Alappadamba region of Kannur district, Kerala. Surrounded by rural greenery, rocky landscapes, and peaceful countryside views, this lesser-known waterfall offers visitors a refreshing experience away from crowded tourist destinations. The waterfall features gentle cascades flowing through natural rock formations and becomes especially attractive during the monsoon and post-monsoon seasons when rainfall increases the water flow and enhances the surrounding landscape. The cool atmosphere, sound of flowing water, and green surroundings make Haritheerthakara Waterfalls a pleasant destination for nature lovers, photographers, and travellers exploring the offbeat attractions of North Malabar. Reaching the waterfall involves a short walk through a narrow pathway from the nearby road, adding a simple nature experience to the visit. Unlike larger commercial waterfalls, Haritheerthakara retains a quiet local charm and is best suited for visitors looking for peaceful outdoor moments, scenic photography, and a relaxing break in nature. Located near Payyanur, the waterfall can be combined with other attractions in Kannur’s northern region for a nature-focused itinerary. Visitors should exercise caution during heavy rains as rocks may become slippery and water conditions can change seasonally. With its calm ambience, monsoon beauty, and hidden countryside setting, Haritheerthakara Waterfalls represents one of Kannur’s charming offbeat natural attractions.
