Chennai to Tada [waterfall trek]

On Aug 15 2016, we [four] have started @ PTC 4:30 am[fasttrack swift 2300/-] and reached Tada ticket counter @ 6:30am. But the board says 8am to 4pm and counter is empty. Not to waste the time we went further [in car] till we reached a building [canteen] and also where there is ample space to park vehicles. On the left side there is a small bridge which is starting point of the trek.

Went along the stream and first place that came on our way is Siva temple. Continued further enjoying the crystal clear water and calmness [while returning there were a lot of people with noise and nuisance].

We reached a point where there are huge rocks with danger symbol on them [and a small stream between them].
On to the right there are guava tree trunks already in place to climb those huge rocks. Once we are above there is a mark showing way to waterfall [on a rock as well as stamped to a tree]. We followed it and reached a dry steep [thought this stream of waterfall had drained]. But there is a way beside it [ups and downs] which leads to a stream of waterfall in midst of greenery [where we have bathed and enjoyed].
Beside it there is a high dry steep which could have been awesome fall if water had been there [we climbed up; you can find the pattern on the rocks indicating there was flow in the past].

We reached @ 1pm to the parking area. All along, stream is filled with people [the moment we realized that we have done a right thing by trekking early in the morning].

Ingredients taken: Half KG chicken fry, boiled egg fry ,cakes and water bottles.
