This notified National Geo-heritage Monument is a distinctive geological feature. The arch is also called Silathoranam in the local language (Telugu language: sila means ‘rock’ and thoranam means a garland strung over a threshold, connecting two vertical columns or an ‘arch’ as in this case). The arch is naturally formed in the quartzites of Cuddapah Supergroup of Middle to Upper Proterozoic (1600 to 570 Ma) due to natural erosive forces. In the 1980s, during excavations for a geological fault in the Tirumala hills, geologists found this rare geological formation of the rock arch which has two dissimilar sets of rocks with a connecting thin link. The assessed geological age of the rock arch is 2.5 million years. Formation of the arch is attributed to intensified weathering and erosion of stream action that has withstood the torque of nature. This is a rare geological fault which is technically called in the geological idiom as ‘Eparchaean Unconformity. Only two more such arch exists in the world- The rainbow arch in Utah and the arch cut through den radiant quartzite of UK. According to local belief Lord Vishnu is supposed to have put his first foot down at a place called Sreevari padalu, the divine foot prints which is the highest point of Tirumala hills, the second step at the location of the arch. Thereafter, the next step is stated to have been placed where his idol is now worshipped in the temple at Tirumala. All the six locations can be visited in under three hours. You start from – Srivari Padalu. Then return back to Silathoranam. The Rock garden and Chakra Theertham is located within the same complex. From here you go straight to Papavinasanam. On way back you can visit Akash ganga and stop for some time on the Gogarbham dam bridge. You will be travelling a maximum distance of 25 kms.

This water fall is situated, about 3 hours by road from Chennai, with about 1.5 KM trek up the hill, almost near Tirupati. Virgin forest and travel by two wheeler and trekking is very popular. Absolute silence and sin set or sunrise can be excellent time. The falls shimmers down like Silver Cascade.
