    It’s often said that the falls are considered a healing spot by the people who live around the valley, and they sometimes hold small rituals when the water level rises. The area was historically home to the Pulicara and Kamma tribes, who used the surrounding forests for hunting and gathering. A short walk from the falls brings you to the old Guntur Fort ruins, which many locals link to the same folklore about the water’s protective powers. Have you heard about any local festivals that take place near the falls?
