HOGENAKKAL BOATING

Oottamalai, Dharmapuri, Tamilnadu, India

Wishlist
Share

Hogenakkal Boating is located in Dharmapuri district of Tamilnadu where the Kaveri river splits into multiple streams of waterfalls. Located at a distance of 180 KM from Bangalore, Hogenakkal has water throughout the year. The carbonite rocks, the coracle (basket boat) rides, freshwater fish, oil massages by locals make it a perfect one day trip or a weekend getaway from Bangalore. Sometimes referred to as the "Niagara Falls of India," it is also known for the medicinal baths. Also known at Marikottayam, Hoge actually means smoke and Kal means rock. Recently, the place has been found to be littered with plastic bags and garbage and the fish market outside the waterfall might stink. Weekends can be crowded. Keep all these points in mind before visiting.
