    We reached Hogenakkal Falls at 3pm after a long journey from Ooty. We had lunch and then proceeded to the falls. Hogenakkal Falls is located on the Kaveri River along the border of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. During rainy seasons, the lush greenery and towering trees along the river present a scenic view. We enjoyed boating in the Kaveri River, which is a major attraction at Hogenakkal Falls, especially during the dry season when water levels are low. Hogenakkal was a memorable part of our journey before heading to our next destination of Bangalore.

    Report hogenakkal We reached Hogenakkal at 3.00pm after a long masthi journey from Ooty.

    We had a special Hogenakkal lunch . After a small relief from hunger we proceeded to Hogenakkal falls.

    Hogenakkal(smoking rocks) Falls is a waterfall in South India on the river Kaveri. It is located in the Dharmapuri district of the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu.Hogenakkal is absolutely in the border of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. During rainy Seasons the lush green ambience of Hogenakkal presents a visual feast to the tourists pouring in. The unique sight of the tall trees mounting upon the small island-like mounds clustered with giant rocks on the way and the fiercely flowing river pounding upon it makes even the dull hearts go awe-stricken. Major attraction of hogenakkal is Boating . we enjoyed our boating in kaveri river. It is considered to form at Talakaveri in the Brahmagiri hills in the Western Ghats of south India and gathers momentum as the land drops in elevation. It becomes larger as various tributaries feed

    into it on the way down. At Hogenakkal, the Kaveri, now a large river, drops and creates numerous waterfalls as the water cuts through the rocky terrain.

    Boating in Hogenakkal is allowed during the dry-season as the water falls are not strong enough to disrupt the passage of the boats. This is the main source of income for these boat operators. The coracles are about 2.24 m in diameter, but still can take a load of eight persons at a time. These coracles are made of bamboo, and with all materials available takes about a day to build. The bottom of the boats are made waterproof by the use of hides, but sometimes with sheets of plastic. Use of plastics in the Hogenakkal vicinity, not just for boats, has been criticised due to problems with pollution. These boats are steered and propelled using a single paddle, making them unique.

    All were tried as we enjoyed at our peak in water. Hogenakkal was one of the memorable location of our auspicious journey. And with more expectation we headed towards our new destiny banglore.
