Hogenakkal - A Visit
Hogenekkal is the water fall present in the border of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. The river kaveri flows via these hills into Tamil Nadu. I was been to this place last year, But I did not get a chance to move over the river. But this time when we visited the place last week, we made it. It was really a excellent experience. We were a crew of 13 members. We hired a couple of boats in addition to a cook who provided us with an excellent food with the country side chicken and Fish fries. The food was as excellent as the river. The river was a very narrow one with both sides banked by hills. The water level was little below normal. There were a lot of water falls here and there on both the side of the hills. The boat-walla told that at times when there is a better water level, the boats cannot go near the falls. The beauty is one side of the hill belongs to Karnataka and the other side is for Tamil Nadu. The following image was the top view from Wikipedia.
We reaced a sand hill on the other side of the river and we took some oil massage and we took a great bath in the running water. The climate was so beautiful and it rained in between.
