Thommankuthu, Seven-step waterfall in Thodupuzha, India
The waterfall spans across 5 kilometers through the dense forest of Western Ghats, creating 12 cascading water streams along its path.
The name originates from a local man named Thomman who lost his life attempting to cross the river at this location.
The term 'kuthu' in the local language designates a waterfall, reflecting the connection between natural features and regional dialect.
Visitors reach the falls through an 18-kilometer journey from Thodupuzha, with Cochin International Airport located 52 kilometers away.
The waterfall system includes multiple spots for swimming and fishing activities, surrounded by forest areas rich in native bird species.
