Ethipothala Falls is a 70 feet (21 m) high river cascade, situated in Palnadu district, Andhra Pradesh, India.

Water from the Nagarjuna Sagar right bank canal is released in to the above streams to keep the waterfall alive and flowing throughout the year for tourism purposes.

The Uttaranga mantras for Anushtup are Madhumati Mahavidya and Sri Datta Sahasrakshari It is very rare to find such a Mandira wherein both Lord Dattatreya and Goddess Madhumathy devi are together.

In this kshetra, Dattaguru is fulfilling the desires in the form of Swapna (dreams), Sparsha (touch), Drishya (vision) and vachasa vidhana.

The reasons for this confusion is because the administration and media in the state widely use the term "Ethipothala Padhakam" to refer to the Lift Irrigation Scheme (LIS).

There is also a major irrigation project named Nagarjuna Sagar located nearby Ethipothala Falls.
