Unseasonal rain has revived the flow of tourists to Jalagamparai falls near Vaniyambadi in Tirupattur as the district has been receiving continuous rainfall since early this month.
Located in Nagalathu reserve forest (RF), the falls, maintained by the Forest Department, is located around four km from the foot of the Yelagiri Hills. As a result, tourists make a halt at the falls before heading towards the hills. A pathway with steel handrailings has been provided for visitors to take shower for a nominal fee to maintain the facility, especially the restrooms and changing rooms that are available there. “During summer, the falls used to be dry but this year it is different. Visitors flow has also increased due to continuous water flow in the falls,” said Prabhu, Forest Range Officer (FRO), Natrampalli range.
