Owing to its valuable location of being surrounded by tall mountain cliffs and magnificent natural beauty, John Mekinan developed this place as a popular picnic spot. From here you will also get a grand panoramic view of other nearby mountains and forest clusters.
Kempty Falls derives its name from “camp and tea”, from the elaborate tea parties that once used to be held here. Locals colloquialized the term and turned it into “Kempty” and that’s what it has been known as ever since! The water that falls cascades along the mountain and divides into five channels.
