About Talakona Waterfalls
At 82 m (270 ft), the highest waterfall in Andhra Pradesh, inside Sri Venkateswara National Park about 50 km north west of Tirupati. A 2 km walk through forest from the Siddheswara Swamy temple leads to the fall; the forest department runs a canopy walk, log huts and guides for longer trails into the hills. Water is strongest from October to December after the north east monsoon; swimming under the fall is not allowed and the last stretch is slippery.
