With a state as rich as Andhra Pradesh in geographical features, there is no shortage of beautiful waterfalls to visit.

Here is a list of five waterfalls that you must visit in Andhra Pradesh. They’ll surely take your breath away.

Talakona Waterfalls

The Talakona Waterfalls is the tallest in Andhra Pradesh at the height of 270 feet tall! It has beautiful forests around it that have become popular ecotourism spots.

Ubbalamadugu Waterfalls

With beautiful rock faces behind the waterfall and crystal clear pools of water at the foot of the falls, Ubbulamadugu waterfalls are a must-visit location. The falls stand at 100-odd meters tall and are situated in the Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh. The closest town to the falls is Srikalahasti. The best time to visit these falls is from August to December, as the heat of the sun is less intense during these months.

Kaigal Waterfalls

Standing at the height of 40 feet, Kaigal Falls definitely aren’t the tallest waterfalls in Andhra, but they’re just as charming and attractive to witness in person. The best time to witness the force and beauty of these falls is between the months of June to October when the monsoon aids the flow of water. The Kaigal Waterfalls are located in the Chittoor district and are around 2.5 kilometres from Kaigal village, which is situated on the Kuppam – Palamaner highway.
