At a Glance:

Muthyamdhara falls is located in jayashankar Bhupalapally dist. of Telangana. It could be the country’s third highest plunge waterfall dropping from estimated 700ft at Gaddalasari. From the height it falling it won’t touch the ground directly, the flow is affected by wind making it look stunning. It forms a  small pool once it touches the ground which is good recreation for swimming enthusiasts.

Best time to visit waterfalls is during the Monsoon season from July – September.
