Bangalore - Weekend trips - Hognekkal Falls

Hogenakkal falls can be ideal for day outing as this is a just 180 KMS from Bangalore located in the borders of Karnataka & Tamilnadu.This beautiful, quiet waterfall is 25 km from Dharmapuri.Here the Cauvery River enters the plains and the river dashing against the rocks is a great sight.People cross the current-rippled waters in circular basket boats covered in buffalo hide or plastic. boat ride through the turbulent waters of the river to the base of roaring falls is the highlight of any Hogenakkal trip. The water under your frail craft explodes with power, tossing you from side to side, threatening to swamp and capsize you.
