About Aruvikkuzhi Waterfalls Tourism Centre
Aruvikkuzhi Waterfalls Tourism Centre is a developed scenic attraction at Chellarkovil in Chakkupallam panchayath, Idukki district, Keralam. DTPC Idukki identifies Aruvikkuzhi as a border-area tourism centre where the waterfall is the principal natural attraction. The location also provides expansive views towards the agricultural landscape of Tamil Nadu’s Theni district and the Cumbum valley below.
The combination of a waterfall and cross-border panorama gives Aruvikkuzhi a different character from Idukki’s larger forest cascades. Visitors can appreciate the high-range edge where Keralam’s green hills fall towards the plains to the east. DTPC records also note that the site has been developed by the Government of Keralam under the District Tourism Promotion Council and opened for public use after the first stage of development.
Chellarkovil belongs to Chakkupallam village in Udumbanchola taluk, and government records support PIN 685512 for Chakkupallam and Chellarkovil addresses. Water flow and visibility vary with season, while wet surfaces near the falls can be slippery. Visitors should remain within designated areas, respect barriers and avoid risky approaches to edges or flowing water.
