Powerhouse Waterfalls(17 km from Munnar)
The water from 'Sita Devi Kulam', believed to be a panacea for all ills, gushes down from the rocky heights to the vicinity of the Kochi - Madurai highway, just after the Lock Heart Gap. The waterfalls is visited by believers and non-believers in its curative properties, as the sight of the falls itself is mind-blowing. The powerhouse will not be seen as it had long ago been abandoned.
The waterfall on the way to Thekkady from Munnar cascades down a steep rock 2000 Mtrs above sea level. The spot is enriched with the scenic Western mountain ranges, and is an ideal place for a break on the way to the Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary in Thekkady.
