Its a wonderful place in kanyakumari.. little bit hard to climb up but very adventures. This trekking recommended for men only (baby and women should be ignored)... A amazing experience to see rock inside waterfall at the top..
Velimalai is the southern tip of western ghats and Kumarakoil is in the foothills of Velimalai There are ample evidence to show Kumarakoil is the Earagam referred to in Silappathigaram. The places connected with Valli viz, Thirukurangudi and Valliyoor, the capital from where Nambirajan the step father (valarpu thanthai) ruled over the place, Nambiyaru, Nambi Thalaivan pattayam, Valli Aaru (river), Valli Kalyana Mandapam in the hill top, Valli Kugai koil (cave temple) in the hill top, Valli Thinaipunam, Valli Cholai (ravine), Vatta Cholai, Kilavan Cholai, (connected with the disguised form as an old man enacted by Lord Muruga), Valli Chunai (small water body) the sacred place where Valli used to take bath, Uravar Padukalam, connected with the war waged by the relatives of Valli against Lord Muruga, the Vengai tree, the disguised form of Lord Muruga etc., in and around Veli Malai are evidences that conforms to the story of the marriage of Lord Muruga with Valli at Valli Malai.
The Valli marriage function is being re-enacted every year in the Tamil month of Painkuni (March–April). There is a temple dedicated to Nambirajan in the hill top of Thirukurangudi the then capital of the chieftain. After the birth of Valli, the name of the place was changed as Valliyur. In the thala varalaru (history of the temple), written by Shri Annalar Adigal, it has been mentioned that when Valli was found abandoned in the Velvi Malai by Nambirajan, his capital was Valliyur (Thirukurankudi). Later he changed his capital to ‘Thenkattur’ near Velvi malai and Valli was brought up there.
