This gorgeous two-decker waterfall flaunts a magnificent drop amidst a verdant landscape. It is secluded deep in the woods, and the leap of the waters offers all the drama in the forest. It is not just a natural wonderland, rather, the place has something to offer history enthusiasts as well. Although the place goes by the name Paloor Kotta (Kotta meaning “fort” in local parlance) there is no fort here. History has it that the legendary ruler Tipu Sultan took refuge here. While there isn't any artificial structure, the place resembles a fortification made by Nature herself! A good vantage point is offered here at the waterfalls. This could be the reason why Tipu Sultan decided to seek refuge here while hiding from his enemies. The place is believed to have served him as effectively as any strong fort.
