Soochipara

Also known as Sentinel Rock Waterfalls, Soochipara Falls is a three-tiered waterfall situated in Vellarimala, Wayanad. Surrounded by deciduous, evergreen, and montane forests, this waterfall is regarded as one of the best in the region.

The drive from Meppadi to Sentinel Rock Waterfalls offers visitors scenic views of some of the finest tea estates in Wayanad.

This enchanting waterfall is about 200 meters high and also features a cliff face that is ideal for rock climbing. Additionally, the water cascading from the falls forms a large pool where visitors can enjoy swimming and bathing. The water from Soochipara later joins the Chaliyar River (also known as the Chulika River) after flowing through the hills of Kerala and Tamil Nadu.
