At a distance of 13 km from Masani Amman Temple, and 21 km from Pollachi, Athuparai Water Cascade is a scenic spot located at Athuparai near Pollachi, Tamil Nadu. Also known as Winner Fame Water Cascade, it is one of the popular places to visit near Coimbatore, and among the must include places in Pollachi Tour Packages.
Athuparai Water Cascade is formed over a check dam built on the Aliyar River. This place became famous because of the Tamil movie Winner as few scenes were shot here. The area is neat, clean, and less crowded. One can enjoy the greenery and the water flowing around, which looks beautiful. It is a serene place to spend time with family but doesn't go with too much expectation.
Visitors can sit on the rocks and enjoy the view and also water play at the river. But beware while bathing found snakes in water in the middle of rocks. When the water level is not high, one can walk through the crossover and reach the nearby farms where the river is calm and the water level is low.
Post-monsoon is the best season to visit this place when the dam is full. The approach path is not developed & a bit messy. But you will enjoy the water area as that is very clean. There are no amenities since it was not developed as a tourist spot.
