Thusharagiri is situated 55 kms away from Kozhikode City and the 'Green Splender' considered as the major tourist destination in Malabar region with four water falls right in the middle of the forest. The waterfalls and streams amidst the hilly regions are really a feast to eyes. |
Attractions : |
Snuggled cozily in the Western Ghats, are the gurgling waterfalls of Thusharagiri. Thushargiri, literally means the snow capped mountains. The three waterfalls on the backdrop of the Western Ghats provide an exhilarating and spellbinding sight to the visitor, in its full glory from September to November. Two streams originating from the Western Ghats meet here to form the Chalippuzha River. The river diverges into three waterfalls creating a snowy spray, which gives the name, 'Thusharagiri'. Of the three, the highest waterfall is Thenpara, which falls from an altitude of 75 metres. |
