A dip in the Urakkuzhi will transform you into a world of bhakti and love for Lord Ayyappa. The Urakkuzhi waterfall is situated 300 metres north of Pandithavalam. A short walk to there and a dip in the cold water will make your mind content.
The water from the forest comes here and forms a waterfall to about 10 feet above. The name for this place has derived from the legend that the bathing at Urulkuzhi at a time can only afford one person. 'Oral Kuzhi' in Malayalam has shortened to Urakkuzhi. There is also a legend that goes by that the water from the heights falls to ural ( rock-grinder) and thus the place came to be known as Uralkuzhi. Thousands of devotees come here to take a holy dip daily.
