Meenmutty
falls is the second largest in Kerala and still retains its natural beauty. Now
let’s see the name reason for Meenmutty fall. In Malayalam, the mother tongue
of Keralites, Meenmutty means "where fish are blocked". Since there
is upward falls where fishes can’t swim further this name is given to the
falls. The three tiers of the waterfall requires separate hike through the
forest. It is important to note that the path to reach the falls is perilous
and tiring. But you must also remember that once you reach the falls you will
have great deal of enjoyment in store.
To
reach the Meenmutty falls we need to trek for two to three kilometers. The 300
meter high falls is really splendid and wonderful. On the way to the falls we
have caves. These caves had Neolithic age carvings. There are officials who
explain the details about the carvings. In the cave ceiling there is a
rock trapped with sunlight oozing in from its sides. This rock is called
'Edakkal' which literally means “the rock in between”. There are
picturesque locations in the way to the falls, so just don’t forget to carry
your handy cams so that you can shoot scenic views. Remember to include
Meenmutty falls in your tour menu for the next time you visit Wayanad Kalpetta.
