In India, everyone can pamper themselves with shopping, beach vacations, Ayurvedic procedures, participation in incendiary parties … And if, among other things, you want to see the waterfalls of India with your own eyes, then you should definitely go on vacation to this country.
Gersoppa
The waterfall, which includes 4 cascades (total height - more than 250 m, and width - more than 400 m), is fed by the Sharavati River. Each of them has its own name: for example, the Rocket stream rushes down with lightning speed, Raji slowly rolls down the cliff, and Gorlopana creates noise, throwing stones down along with water. It is worth noting that you can see Gersoppa in all its glory only on weekends, since on weekdays the waterfall “works” for the power plant.
Hogenakal
Travelers call Hogenakal (located on the Kaveri River) "Indian Niagara" for its beauty and grandeur. Since it is believed that the waters of Hogenakal have a healing effect, improving their health is another reason why tourists make the difficult journey to get to this waterfall. It is worth noting that local residents offer those who wish to have them massage with hot oil.
Dudhsagar
The name of the 310-meter waterfall means “ocean of milk”. This explains not only the color of the water, but also the legend. Once upon a time here the princess indulged herself with water procedures, after which she drank milk (she brought it with her in a golden jug). One day she saw a young man watching her, and to cover her nakedness, she poured milk into the water in front of her. These flowing streams of white color gave birth to Dudhsagar. The nearest settlement is Kolem - from there tourists are taken to Dudhsagar by jeeps (they will be asked to pay about 300 rupees for the trip). After admiring the water giant, those who wish can plunge into the cool lake located at its foot.
Nohkailikai
The waters of this waterfall plunge from a 335-meter height into a rather deep lake (the water flow collects on a plateau covered with lush vegetation 2 km from the waterfall). In the rainy season, it is not easy to capture the waterfall in a photo because of the fog and clouds, but at other times you can contemplate this natural miracle by approaching its very base.
Palaruwi
The 91-meter waterfall is fed by the Kallada River, and its name means “falling milk” (the best time to visit is June-January).
It is worth noting that travelers who come here prefer to have picnics, as there are many places where you can retire and immerse yourself in harmony with nature.
