Puliyancholai Waterfalls is a scenic, natural spot located at the foothills of the Kolli Hills in the Eastern Ghats, near Tiruchirappalli (Trichy) in Tamil Nadu, India. This picturesque waterfall is nestled amidst lush greenery and offers a tranquil escape from the bustling city life. It is an ideal place for nature lovers and those seeking serenity. A part of the waterfalls lies close to the foot of the hills while another part, known as Akaya Gangai, is situated higher up the hills and requires a trek to reach. The entire area is renowned for its tamarind groves and the cool, clear waters of the falls, which are believed to have medicinal properties. The water flows over a rocky bed, and during the monsoon season, it transforms into a powerful cascade. Puliyancholai is also famous for its rich biodiversity; the surrounding forests are home to a variety of flora and fauna. Visitors to the site can enjoy bathing in the falls, trekking in the nearby forest, and relaxing in the serene environment.
