I did my first visit to Mannakethi Falls in 2012 and later I have visited it for only 1 time up to 2016. But in 2016, I had to visit it for more than 12 times and mainly with my HSBC staff members. However, I took only one hike to publish this post as this shows the wooden staircase which is not available now.
Once you go to the top of Mannakethi Falls, just have to walk upward of the stream. There are many natural adventure activities in this place as sliding, jumping, and swimming too. But always be careful when walking on the slippery rocks and beware about flash floods during rainy days.
