Situated on the Karnataka - Tamil Nadu
border, Hogenakal is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful
places in the state. The broad stream of the River Cauvery
gets forked at this point, forming an island from where
one stream continues on while it plunges into a deep chasm
to create one of the loveliest waterfall gives these rocks
the name Hogenakal which means "smoking rock"
in Kannada. Since the waters of the kauvery flow through
a forest of herbs on their journey to Hogenakal, bathing
in these falls is considered to be good for health.
The magnificent, rugged mountain scenery around the falls
can be better enjoyed by long walks and treks.
