Chandrupatla Waterfalls
Chandrupatla Waterfalls is a hidden treasure located near the village of Erraboinapalli. This waterfall is relatively less known compared to the larger falls in the state, which has helped it maintain its pristine and untouched charm. The water falls from a height of about 20 feet into a wide pool surrounded by large boulders and thick vegetation. It is a perfect spot for those who seek solitude and a direct connection with nature without the interference of large crowds. The journey to the falls involves a drive through scenic rural landscapes followed by a short walk through the woods. The surrounding area is rich in biodiversity, with various species of flora native to the Eastern Ghats foothills. During the rainy season, the waterfall expands, covering the entire rock face in a white sheet of water. The pool at the bottom is shallow enough for safe wading, making it popular for local youngsters. The air near the falls is filled with a refreshing mist that provides instant relief from the Telangana heat. It is a site that embodies the "hidden gem" concept of tourism. Local villagers are very protective of the site and often help visitors find the way. There are no commercial stalls nearby, so it remains a quiet retreat. The geology of the area features ancient rock formations that are a delight for amateur geologists. It is an ideal spot for a day-trip for residents of Yellandu and Khammam.
