The waterfall is located between private coffee plantations with stocky coffee bushes and spice estates with trees entwined with pepper vines. The falls appear suddenly, the water cascading over rocks into calm pools.[2]
During the monsoon season the water flow is very high. During the dry seasons the flow is much diminished.
Transport From Madikeri the falls are accessible by a narrow road to the coffee estate. A path through coffee and cardmmon plantations leads to the waterfalls. The falls can be heard roaring from the road. The best time to visit is early winter when the monsoons have brought plenty of water.[3]
