Courtallam Experience: Courtallam is a great place to visit and enjoy especially if we visit at the right time with less crowd and a beautiful weather. (October;2010). The bath at small falls (3 to 5 falls ) was really great. One has to visit the location to really get the feeling of the bath, water flowing from a higher altitudes and with the force was simply superb.
Food, sight-seeing and shopping: Since we stayed at a resort (Saaral resort) , the food provided at the resort restaurant was good. Also Tenkasi being nearby, there are plenty of small restaurants offering good breakfast and lunch, which are value for money.
Activities & things to do: Enjoy the bath at the falls. View the falls from a distance is also great. There are lots of small shops. Some are really good and creative work of art could be spotted.
Travel tips, How to reach, travel warnings etc: Courtrallam could be reached from Chennai through Sengottai express going to Sengottai and alighting at Tenkasi which is just 10 minutes drive from Courtrallam. It reaches Tenkasi at aorund 7.30 am. Other options are trains reaching Tirunelveli. But the distance is around 40- 50 kms from Courtrallam.
