Ornithologists attach considerable importance to this area and in these sections, bird watchers will come across many unique and colorful birds.
A lovely place to spend time when visiting Aathirappilly is Vazhachal Falls. Due to safety issues, entry to the falls is prohibited. The perimeter is fenced, however, one can see the drop for a decent duration, and this does not obstruct the view.

Toilet facilities are also available.
