Description

At just a distance of 146 kms of Bangalore, Hogenakkal Falls is a majestic place to soulful solace and ardent adventure. The name is derived from two Kannada words Hoge and Kal which mean Smoke and Rocks respectively; thus, Hogenakkal can be called as Smokey Rocks. The waterfall is built on Cauvery river in Dharmapuri district of Tamil Nadu.

You probably would feel the touch of a different world by glaring at the mesmerizing 14 channels waterfall with drops varying between 15 ft. to 65 ft. Among the greeneries, one can find Carbonanite rocks in abundance that is known to be one of the oldest rocks in the world.

At first, you tickle on toe for 3 kms to reach the ever-peaceful yet so musical Hogenakkal Falls. After the panoramic view of mountains and the Cauvery river, you can get ready for jolting and wavy Coracle ride. Do not forget to whistle on the scenic view from the boat while the experts were driving and even directing instructions. When the bumpy ride is over, then you are free unload all your life worries during your jump in the river. Swim all the way to kindle the good memories.

The trip was a long and exciting one, interspersed with delicious food and scenic attractions. It was a 4 hour drive from Bangalore, Karnataka, to Hogenakkal, Tamil Nadu. The entire route has beautiful landscape with scenic mountains alongside and wavy, mesmerizing roads. On reaching the venue, we had to wait in queue for an hour to get to the circular boats which take us to the actual falls. The adventurous boat ride, the energizing falls, the exhausting wait worth it. Near the shore, we got down in the waters. After spending a little time, we came back via the same adventurous boat-ride. It, definitely, had been a wonderful trip. Thanks to our guide chotu and e2e.

This was my second trip with escape2explore. This time there was plenty of water to enjoy. This place gets a little bit crowded during weekends.n Best part is obviously the falls. It's breathtakingly beautiful. The boat ride is worth every penny though it takes two hours. Guide sonu was speechless and trek was good. Thanks to e2e team. Highly recommended!! Cheers to the team!! ✌️✌️✌️#trekdone✔️with E2E.

Though the place falls in the states of Tamilnadu but is 3hr drive from Bangalore. It is definitely a must go place. There are 3 seasons in which one can go.1. June-Aug - when it is peak monsoon. The water level will be very high and you will only be able to go for a boat ride. The view of the falls would be super amazing.2. Dec-Jan - when the water level is high but not as high as in monsoons. One can enjoy the boat ride and also will be able to get down at certain points in water. It is the peak season for travellers. Expect a couple of hours queue to get a boat. 3. Feb - Mar - when the water level is low. One can enjoy the boat ride. Also one will be able to get down in the waterfalls and bathing areas. we went here in this period and we just had a gala time.

It is a humungus set of various waterfalls - small and big. They take you for a sail on the coracle boat and u will feel like you are passing through a fjord. A huge area with ample amount of space to chill, swim, sleep etc. The passage leads to an island kind of a river bank where you can have a picnic if you like.

This place is situated around 3 hrs drive as a weekend getaway from the city. It's a nice waterfall where you can spend your day . On the road side you can see various fresh fish stalls if you like to . There is also bamboo boat ride which will take you inside the river for 1 hour trip ,which is worth it as you can go inside the river, can shop cold drinks/chips from other boat seller in the midway, we had wonderful experience... had a great time thanks to Escape2explore team and guide sonu was awesome.

It is a 3 hour trip of about 170km from Bangalore. After turning into the Dharmapuri Hogenakkal road, you can see the greenery all around. Lots of monkeys are seen on the sides of the road.The tourist spots are not maintained properly and littered with plastic and other waste materials. Bathing deck is crowded with hawkers and massage men.A scenic spot ruined by the locals,authorities and waterfall is speech less.
