A major tourist attraction and a pilgrimage spot, Iruppu Falls plunge perpendicularly from a height of 52 m (170 ft) in the Brahmagiri range. Believed to possess the power to cleanse one's sins, the place draws thousands of Sri Ram devotees who seek blessings from a temple en route to the falls. Particularly arresting in full capacity during monsoon season, this freshwater cascade lies 48 km (30 mi) from Virajpet on the highway to Nagarhole. Access the site via a 2-3 km (1.5 mi) hike amidst lush greenery. Expect to get wet even if standing far away from the falls.

Silent place to visit. Chilled water from top hills. Kids can be enjoyed a lot. Enjoy a small trekking from entry point to top.

Visit only after the monsoon. Else there is not much water. It is a longish trek, and you may see a feeble "waterfall". The walk in the wooded area is nice.

You have to buy the tickets first. It will cost you 60rs per person. Wall towards the fall is 1 km around. The path is no doubt beautiful and surrounded by lush greenery. I visited the fall in April month so i think this is not the right time. The water was narrow and wasn't that attracting at all. You can easily take a bath once you reach the fall and there are changing rooms for men women both so no worries where will you change the clothes. Please wear shoes as it's more comfortable while walking and climbing stairs. It's a very beautiful place for a day outing. Kids can also enjoy. Thera are food stalls outside.

This is a great place and very scenic. This is under the reserved area so you are not allowed to carry any plastic which is great and helps in keeping the place clean. Waterfalls is fun you can get into the water and right under the falls if the flow is not too heavy. We visited in December and the flow was good but the water was ice cold! 🥶🥶. But we really enjoyed and loved the experience.
