Talakona, Waterfall in Sri Venkateswara National Park, India.

The Talakona waterfall descends from a height of 270 feet through dense forest, creating the highest cascade in Andhra Pradesh state.

The area received biosphere reserve status in 1989, preserving its diverse ecosystem and protecting numerous indigenous plant and animal species.

The Siddheswara Swamy Temple near the waterfall houses a Shiva Linga transferred from an ancient temple in Rayavaripalli village.

Visitors access the waterfall through multiple trekking paths from October to January, when the water flow increases due to monsoon rains.

The water streaming down contains natural herbs from the surrounding forest, which local inhabitants consider beneficial for various health conditions.

Location: Yerravaripalem

Part of: Sri Venkateswara National Park
