Of the three falls which are also located inside the forest in a greenish background, the highest is the thenpara fall that cascade from an altitude of 75 meters.

The adventurous trekking and rock climbing through the river paths always delight the visitors. Trekkers could reach Vithiri in Wayanad district by evening if they start trekking in the early morning from the second waterfall. September to November is the ideal time to visit this picturesque place. Government of Kerala, identified Thusharagiri as an eco tourist centre.
