Legend has it that the name AnayadiKuthu came from a clash between two elephants and one of them fell into the waterfall and died. The waterfall is located at the bottom of the stream that flows through Kambakakanam and Neikuthanal.[3] There is a concrete bridge for people to walk across the top of the falls.
