Katari Falls, Ooty Overview
Katari Falls, the third-highest waterfall in the Nilgiris, is located at Adikarratti, 10 km from Coonoor. It drops from a height of about 180 m, with the water gushing down to form a pool at its base, and is a popular picnic spot in the region.
It was the site of India’s first hydroelectric power project, which is also known as the Katary Hydroelectric system. The power plant harnessed 1000 KW of power from the mechanical energy of the falling water. The hydro electric power station is also a tourist attraction and attracts several tourists to the place. The waterfalls especially look ravishing during the rainy season when the water cascades in all its glory amidst lush green woods enveloped in mighty mountains.
