Vazhvanthol Waterfalls Near Kanithadam, Trivandrum

Our latest trip was to one of the least explored tourist places in Thiruvananthapuram named Vazhvanthol. 

Vazhvanthol waterfall is situated near Kanithadam, Vithura, and it is an emerging tourist destination for those who love trekking and site seen. 

We started our journey to Vazhvanthol Waterfalls from Trivandrum with a team of 15 members.

It is a 45-kilometer journey (According to Google map, the distance from Vazhvanthol Waterfalls to Trivandrum is 48 km), and it took more than one hour to reach the Kanithadam forest check post.

After obtaining permission from the forest check post, we started our journey to the waterfalls. It was wonderful trekking through a dense forest which we cannot forget in our life.
