Urakkuzhi Waterfalls is a picturesque waterfall located near Kakkayam in Kozhikode District, Kerala, within the scenic Western Ghats region known for its lush forests, hills, and rich biodiversity. Situated as part of the Kakkayam eco-tourism destination, Urakkuzhi Waterfalls is a popular attraction for nature lovers, photographers, trekkers, and travellers looking for peaceful experiences away from crowded tourist locations. The waterfall flows through rocky landscapes surrounded by dense greenery, creating a refreshing natural setting that highlights the beauty of Kerala’s forested highlands. Visitors can reach Urakkuzhi Waterfalls through a trekking route from the Kakkayam area, making the journey itself an enjoyable nature experience. The trail offers scenic views of the Western Ghats landscape, streams, forest surroundings, and the tranquil atmosphere of the Kakkayam region. Kerala Tourism promotes the Urakkuzhi trekking experience as one of the key eco-tourism activities available at Kakkayam, along with exploring waterfalls, viewpoints, and the surrounding natural environment. The waterfall is especially attractive during and after the monsoon season when the surrounding forests become greener and the water flow is enhanced. The combination of cascading water, rocky formations, cool forest air, and peaceful surroundings makes Urakkuzhi Waterfalls one of the notable offbeat places to visit in Kozhikode District. Located near Kakkayam Dam and the Malabar Wildlife Sanctuary region, the area reflects the ecological importance of the Western Ghats and encourages responsible tourism practices. Travellers visiting Urakkuzhi Waterfalls should follow local safety guidelines, as forest trails and rocky surfaces can become slippery during rainy periods.
