Chandrupatla Waterfalls
Chandrupatla Nature Spot: This is a beautiful, lesser-known waterfall located in the dense forest area between Kothagudem and Khammam. The water cascades down a series of rocky steps before settling into a clear stream. It is a perfect spot for those who want to avoid the commercialized crowds of la rger waterfalls. The surrounding woods are home to diverse wildlife and provide a cool micro-climate even in hot weather. The approach road passes through beautiful agricultural fields and tribal hamlets. It is a seasonal fall, best experienced immediately after the monsoon. The atmosphere is primitive and raw, offering a true "into the wild" experience. Local villagers consider the water to have healing properties. It is a great location for weekend escapes and small group explorations.
