Kuntala Falls

          At a distance of 43 Kms from Nirmal, 58 Kms from Adilabad & 260 Kms from Hyderabad, Kuntala Falls is the second highest waterfall in AP with a height of 150 feet (after Talakona Falls). It is a breathtaking falls amidst dense forest at a distance of 12 Kms from Neredikonda village between Nirmal and Adilabad.

               Formed by Kadam River, Kuntala falls cascades down through two steps and can be seen as two separate adjacent falls after the peak rains. It is one of the famous one day outings from Hyderabad. There is a motorable road till the entry point of falls from where steps are available to reach bottom of falls. The falls is about 10 minutes (one way) walk from the entry point.

                 Monsoons and post-monsoons are the best seasons to visit Kuntala Falls. It is dangerous to get into water at the bottom when the water flow is high due to sharp rocks and twists.
Public transport is available till Neredikonda from where private vehicles can be hired. Nirmal & Adilabad are base stations.
