How to Reach:
About 57km from Srisailam, Mallelateertham is a four hour drive from Hyderabad. The waterfall is located 7km off the Srisailam-Hyderabad road. Food and lodging are not available there. It is either advisable to hire your own vehicle either at Srisailam or anywhere you like.
Grade: Easy
Notes:
A series of 6 waterfalls with the largest plunge, the first one too, falling from a height of at least more than 300 ft is a scene to see. Surrounded by lush green vegetation, this is the waterfall for all seasons - yes, in summer too. The rest of the waterfalls in this series are smaller, yet very beautiful and secluded, giving a pleasant view. A little bit or rock climbing and path finding is required.
The place does have some bears. Also, be careful with the elusive Russel's Viper and the Rock Python. Plenty of birds including the Brown-headed Barbet, Grey Hornbills, Parakeets, Blue Jay, Painted Snipes can be seen there all the time. You are not allowed to venture beyond the first waterfall but following the stream downwards will get you to the large pool of the last waterfall which can be easily identified. Water can be dirty at times. Keep the place clean. Enjoy the beauty.
