Shivanasamudra Falls - Tourist attraction in Cauvery Beat - default, India

There is a distant view of waterfalls, going nearby isn't allowed. Beware of monkeys as there are a lot of them. Visit during or after the monsoons as water flow is more that time. Took at least 3 hrs from the city centre. Parking charge is there but no entry fee. Gaganchukki and Bharachukki are the 2 sides of the falls which are few kms drive from one another. You will get only coconut stalls and papdi chat/bhelpuri kinda stalls as eatery options. Public washroom available in both the places.

Visiting Shivanasamudra Falls near Mysuru was a mesmerizing experience that etched its beauty into my memory. As I approached the falls, the distant roar of cascading water grew louder, building anticipation. The first glimpse of the falls was breathtaking; the sheer force of the water tumbling down rugged cliffs was awe-inspiring. The mist from the cascading water created a cool, refreshing atmosphere, providing relief from the warmth of the surroundings. The lush greenery surrounding the falls added to the scenic charm, making it a perfect blend of nature's elements. I stood on the viewing platform, spellbound by the sheer power and grandeur of the falls. Taking a boat ride to get closer to the falls was a highlight of the trip. The boat gently glided over the river, offering a unique perspective of the falls. The sound of the water crashing against the rocks was both thrilling and soothing, creating a sensory symphony. The experience at Shivanasamudra Falls was not just about witnessing nature's beauty but also about feeling its raw energy. It left me with a profound appreciation for the natural wonders that exist, untouched and majestic. As I left, the image of the falls and the rhythmic sound of cascading water lingered in my mind, a reminder of the breathtaking beauty tucked away in the heart of Mysuru.

Good place to hangout during a weekend. It's only a view point and one cannot go underneath the falls. Work is going on to reconstruct steps.

Good place for a one day trip from Bangalore in the monsoon season. Please check the weather before visiting this place.

A very beautiful place where many rivers meet. Check the latest reviews and then visit. This place looks good only if there is a lot of water. We visited in December but even then there was not much water. Sometimes the shooting happens and the public is not allowed in one part. We need to get a ticket for beyond one point.

We visited yesterday on 16th September 2023. It was a very nice experience. Very Good outing for one day trip from Bengaluru or Mysuru. The road is full of nature and the roaring falls both Gaganachukki and Barachukki are worth watching for few minutes or hours. The place has an ancient temple, a church and a dargah blended in a secular atmosphere. From Bengaluru if you travel in expressway upto Maddur, then be alert to take the exit to service road well before the actual exit shown by the Google maps, as few exits are recently closed to avoid 2/3 wheelers. Closing time is 5 pm. Reach ideally between 11 to 1 pm. Visit both falls and on the way have lunch in Malavalli town or Restaurants on the highway. Fish lovers can eat fresh fried fish near Barachukki falls.
