At Soochippara, water falls from a height of 20 metres and forms a pool before gushing away as a small stream. The nearby rock is 200 metres high and resembles a needle so it got the name needle rock. Not just the waterfall, the whole area is known by the name Soochippara. 

 

The bottom pool is good for a leap in. However, access to the pool is allowed only during December till end May. Rains in surrounding hills can cause water to rush in unexpectedly as torrents drowning or washing people away. Also, rocks can fall in along with water. Dry season from December till May is considered safe. 

 

Nearby rocky region used to be a trekking spot till a couple of years ago. However, due to landslides trekking not allowed nowadays.
