Dhoni

About this experience

A scenic trek through lush forest trails leads to the spectacular Dhoni Waterfalls, one of Palakkad’s most popular natural attractions. The 4 km walk takes about three hours, winding past streams and thick greenery before reaching the cascading falls. Visitors can enjoy the cool spray, picnic by the water, and spot butterflies and birds along the way. It’s a refreshing experience for nature lovers, combining adventure with the serenity of the Western Ghats.

It is a 4 km one-way trek with a moderate level of difficulty. You may see trained elephants at the camp area. Carry enough water, as it’s essential for the hike. Waterfalls can be seen only during the monsoon season.
