Start mid-morning at Koolangal river, where the stream runs clear over pebbles through the estates. Paddle only when the water is low and calm, and keep children within reach. Drive past the Puthuthottam rainforest fragment and pause where lion-tailed macaques are often seen in the canopy (watch from the road, and no feeding). After lunch, head to Chinnakallar, where a short, rocky path leads to cascades that are fullest from July to November. If the authorities have it open, finish at the quiet reservoir of Lower Neerar.
