While leaving the temple of Rudreshwar, one can descend the
staircase to look at a majestic waterfall shedding its exuberant silvery
showers. The beautiful Arvalem fall, with a head of about 24 feet high,
forms a sizeable lake at the bottom, which offers a sizeable temptation to
seasoned swimmers.
The best time to visit this site is just after the copious monsoon when
it presents a rapturous, ravishing and riotous aspect. The ancient caves
in the vicinity adds a touch of antiquity to this picturesque place, which
finds a major attraction for the film makers as a favourite shooting spot.
