Similar trek to Koosalli. River path and rocks and boulders just like in Koosalli. But the boulders are larger here. Trek was longer, tougher and the climb was tiring. It seemed like never ending. The climb was gradual initially and later on it became steeper. At some places we had to race, gain speed and run over the surface to reach the top of 45 degree shaped huge boulders.

A year later on 21st November 2004, 15 of us descended on Chaktikal village to visit Kudumari falls. All 8 from the memorable Koosalli trek along with Giridhar, Ganapathi, Kishore, Prabhakar, Yatheesh, Bharath and Daryll made up the team. Chaktikal can be reached from Shiroor Check Post via Toodalli. From Toodalli on the way to Kallikone, take the right turn when a bridge appears and continue till a church appears. Take the immediate left turn after the church and 2 km later last house at Chaktikal is the stop. Alternate way is from Byndooru via Muddodi.

Kudumari is a single fall of about 300 ft. The topography is similar to Koosalli. In front of the falls we all sat at a height enjoying the sprinkling of water on us and emptied our lunch. After about 2 hours we started back. If Koosalli was memorable, Kudumari was unforgettable.
