Hogenakkal - Waterfalls and bike ride

Place type: waterfalls, photography/sightseeing,seafood dish

Crew: Malthesh, Shanmugam, Girish, Rajesh, Arun, Siddu, Praveen

Hoggenakkal waterfalls of Kaveri river located in the Dharmapuri district of Tamilnadu which attracts tourist people from both Karnataka and Tamilnadu. often people compare these falls to Niagara falls because of water speed and its view. we people started our bike ride to hogenakkal falls from Bangalore around 6AM. The bike ride to this place becomes a risk once you cross the Karnataka border because of poor road conditions.







If you wish to enjoy the gushing waterfall which gives small heart attack better to visit during the rainy season otherwise if you need to enjoy all activities which I depicted further visit in other than any month except rainy season months.

River bath, rent boat services, and seafood dishes are major attractions over this place. another major attraction and activity available over here is the body oil massage.

The rented boating activity is allowed only during the dry season/ where the water forces are less. the boat operators are heavily skilled to drive through the dense waves of the river Kaveri. boat operators take you to some part of small falls which are situated around and allow you to spend time over there.


Need to talk about the body oil massage which is another business for local people over there, you need to buy a bottle of oil which is sold around and then need to pay for massage guy for body massage. both young and old people are ready over there to provide body massage ( only men's),  preferred and advised to go with elder people because they know that business from past and they will offer painless service.

Really this massage helps you to free yourself from body pain and relax. The funny thing is that literally, they will bend your arms, and it's nice to see that friend shouting during the massage. once you are done with massage a small fall is available in the walkable distance where you can get a bath over there.

Later after finishing all these activities it will be afternoon and here hotels are not available instead of that homes around their cook seafood of your wish. you need to buy seafood available over there and need to give that to people who will cook for the cost ( 500 starting price ). This is the first thing you need to do if you want to have food there only. first, buy fish of your wish provide it for people who cook, and pay half of the amount that they demand. don't stick to the cost what they demand.



The bike ride to this place allows you to cross the forest area and if you planned to visit this place with a gang of more than 8 people, then you can enjoy it a lot.
