The biggest waterfall in India is the Kunchikal waterfalls. It is located on the Shimoga - Udupi border of Karnataka. The water that flows down the waterfall is from the river Varahi. It is ranked as the 116th in the world and India highest waterfall. The waterfalls from a height of 455meters, in a cascading manner over the rocky structures. The waterfalls close to the Hulikal Ghati Temple.
The water directly falls into the reservoir of the Mani dam, which greatly cuts down the speed of the flow of water. A hydraulic power plat is also built at the foot of the waterfalls, to generate electricity.
The right time to visit this waterfall is during the rainy season. During this season, the waterfall is surrounded by greenery, and it is a delight to watch the tributaries formed by the Varahi river, as it falls into the waterfall.
