Aliyar Dam Pollachi

Aliyar Dam is around 24 km distance from Pollachi. The dam is beautiful and must visit places near Coimbatore. You can take one bus from Coimbatore or Palani and can reach here. This is on the way from Pollachi to Valparai.

Monkey falls in Pollachi

We visited this place on Jan 1st 2011, I think this is the best water falls I have ever seen. It is one of the tourist attraction 24km from Pollachi. Pollachi is around 45km from Coimbatore. We find many monkeys around the falls and I think the place is named due to it.

Being the new year day, many people visited here and the place is very busy. The falls are just after Aliyar dam while driving from Pollachi.

Spent around 3 hours and we don't know how the time has passed. we got chance to be under the fall for longer time.

Must visit place.
